I will become the owner of a 3 story rental property in about 8 months and I'm pretty stoked about it. I've been researching my state's laws and whatnot but I was wondering if anyone here was a landlord and what kind of Pro advice I can get. --- "Best read of the game goes to se7en.

Hire a property manager to do everything for you.

Upcharges for pets obviously. Use your head when getting tenants. Make them have a background check at their own charge to apply.

Lol. Not surprised by the jokes but are there no B8'ers that own their own rental property?

I conceivably could be in the same situation soon, albeit under different circumstances. I inherited my dad's house, and I don't plan on moving in. So once I get everything cleaned out, I basically have two choices: sell or rent.
So if we had this conversation in a year's time, I might have advice for you, but nothing at this time. I wouldn't be surprised if there aren't B8'ers who rent property, though. Most of us are 35 and below, which usually doesn't lend itself to being in that position. At best, you might find someone who works as a property manager. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Do you have any repair/maintainence skills, or are you going to have to hire people to deal with that?

I ask because the only person I know that rents out property seems to have an advantage because he knows the property, its problems and the ways to fix them very well
So finding someone like that would be sweet --- You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured. ... Copied to Clipboard!

My dad is a landlord, and I'm the building manager of one of his properties.
Make sure you have a standard guy you can call on to perform miscellaneous handyman stuff within a day or two of the problem, things like plumbing, broken windows, etc. Having to search for a guy after it happens makes everything take a million times longer. Accept in advance that the most commonly damaged thing in an apartment when someone leaves is carpeting. --- Not changing this sig until I decide to change this sig. Started: July 6, 2005 ...
