Top 5 Landlord Books

[Gabriel Petersen]

Hey all,

I'm a relatively new investor in the Seattle area (1 triplex, 1 duplex, 1 SFR).

Going into this I had no idea how hard being a landlord could be - I've had people flood my properties, had TONS of minutia calls (hey can you come and look at my sink for me? It drips every once in awhile), had non-payment issues, the works. All with 6 doors!

Needless to say, I thought I should bone up on landlording, so I bought a good number of books.

Here's my list of the top 5 landlording books for newbies out there. Some of them aren't strictly landlord books - but they're relevant to the topic.

1. First-Time Landlord: Your Guide to Renting out a Single-Family Home

2. Every Landlord's Legal Guide

3. Landlording on Autopilot: A Simple, No-Brainer System for Higher Profits and Fewer Headaches

4. What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow... And 36 Other Key Financial Measures, Updated Edition

5. HOLD: How to Find, Buy, and Rent Houses for Wealth

Best of luck!
