The Foundations of Buying, Leasing & Selling Rental Property

This course covers a complete overview of the entire rental business–from buying a property through management and selling. If you’re a beginner, this course is a MUST! As the saying goes, you don’t know what you don’t know. Not knowing can leave you in the crosshairs of a government agency or, worse yet, an ambulance chasing attorney. Even if you’re not new to the rental business, there are lots of things to learn, including updates on local and state laws. It never hurts to take a refresher course as good insurance against future mishaps. Some of the points covered in the course include:

  • Proper due diligence before buying or turning your existing home into a rental property.
  • Federal, State, and local regulations regarding rental property ownership and management.
  • Methods for effective management, including tenant screening, dealing with problem tenants, evictions, and more.
  • Setting rental rates and effectively advertising rental property.
  • Proper forms to use for leasing.
  • What to do before selling a rental property.
