Whether you’re an owner or manager this article is very useful.  Jeff goes over basics like:

1. Forms and the need to keep current

2. Delivery options and timelines

3. 30-/90-day notices

4. Filling in forms correctly

5. For cause notices

6. Charges, late and partial payments

7. Preventing mistakes and giving yourself the best case

8. Deposits, charges and dealing with tenant requests

I assure you it’ll be the best (not being over-dramatic) 30 minutes of your time invested in your apartments.

The environment for landlords was difficult and new rules don’t make it easier.  Being knowledgeable is a minimum requirement for successful landlords today.
