The Florida Landlord's Manual

The Florida Landlord's Manual ($29.95) was written to be a hands-on guide, for Florida's do-it-yourself residential landlords, who go it alone, and run their rental housing business without a small army of employees, at their beck and call.

In this one-of-a-kind, residential rental property operations manual, you get the lowdown on how to maximize your rental property's profit potential, by cutting costs and increasing income. You also learn property management techniques, that separate professional landlords from the amateurs.

The number one cause of landlord failure in Florida, is incompetence. That's because incompetent landlords, lack the knowledge and management know-how, that's needed to run their rental housing business, in an efficient, professional manner. And that's exactly why, so many do-it-yourself, residential landlords in Florida, are lucky if they operate their rental housing business, on a break-even basis.

The key to being a profitable, residential landlord in Florida, is knowledge. The residential landlords who spend the time, effort and money to acquire the necessary knowledge, are the ones who consistently make a profit year after year. They're also the same landlords, who stay in business and acquire rental properties from the amateur landlords, who lack knowledge and mismanage their properties.

In The Florida Landlord's Manual, you'll learn exactly how to: 
1. Insure your rental property, reduce your risks and limit your personal liability as landlord. 
2. Properly maintain income, expense, tenant, property, tax and insurance records. 
3. Write a rental agreement that's fully enforceable in court, and protects your rights and interests as landlord. 
4. Properly set, collect, hold and refund tenants' security deposits. 
5. Set and raise monthly rental rates. 
6. Thoroughly screen tenant applicants, so you don't end up renting to the proverbial tenant from hell.
7. Quickly do a residential eviction with or without an attorney. 
8. Collect rental payments on the day they're due. 
9. Maintain control of your tenants and rental property. 
10. Use the Internet, for rent signs, classified ads, referral fees and military housing offices to attract the best qualified tenant applicants.
