This presentation will give a broad overview of all MassLandlords membership benefits. We will show you how to access benefits and explain some of the options available under each.

Rental forms
Home Depot savings
Service provider directory
Entity formation savings

Videos, analysis, and spreadsheets
Newsletter
Message boards and Facebook group
Credit screening discount
Events
Legal standing
Helpline

Certified Massachusetts Landlord™
Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how these services operate and how to access them. All benefits can be accessed starting online at the MassLandlords Member Homepage.

Chat will be moderated by Doug Quattrochi, Executive Director, MassLandlords, Inc. Doug was a founding member of MassLandlords in 2013. He became the association's first Executive Director under new bylaws in 2014. Since then, he has scaled the organization from a core of 160 members in Worcester to approximately 2,500 dues paying businesses from Pittsfield to the Cape, and from an all-volunteer team to approximately 20 full and part-time staff plus 50 volunteers. Doug has been instrumental in advancing democratic governance mechanisms, including score voting for policy priorities and a staggered and democratically elected Board of Directors. Doug also oversees the RentHelper spin-off, which is expanding access to electronic banking for those of us who are unbanked or underbanked. Prior to MassLandlords, Doug held leadership roles in various Massachusetts startups, two of which are still operating. Doug holds a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
