Managing rental property today has become far too complicated and highly regulated. If you receive a letter from your tenant’s attorney, do you respond? How do you respond? If someone other than your tenant is asking you for keys or maintenance requests or tries to negotiate terms, what do you do? Do you email or text to terminate a tenancy? If there’s a habitability issue at the property, do you provide your tenant with a hotel while the repairs are being made? If you want to learn the answers to these and so many other questions, then this is definitely the webinar for you!

  • Take a deep breath before responding...How to refrain from acting on your emotions, even if you know you are right…avoid putting your foot in your mouth!
  • Go beyond the tenant screening report. Tenant screening tips that are fast and simple, and that will avoid the problem tenant. Learn what to look for and why on Google, such as tenant’s phone number given as their employer and much more.
