[Eric Love]

Hello All at Bigger Pockets,

I'm Eric Love in Jacksonville, AL  USA.  I've managed my own residential rentals for 51 years.  Being top rated for best run and safest for many years, I'd like to see my methods and forms live on.  Retirement is around the corner and my adult children have chosen other careers.  So you Newbies will be the beneficiary of all I can teach you, tell you or write to you about what has kept me at or near #1 in reputation out of some 60 places to lease in our area.  I credit the many plain language documents and policies I created over the years that have helped guide my Tenants around the clock, every day of the year.  It's been like having an Assistant Landlord on Paper; hence, the name "Paper Landlord".

I know that for certain.  Because part or all of my work has been borrowed and used by many from the "one house" Landlord to the Landlord "with hundreds of units".  I've stepped into quite a few costly potholes in 51 years, but I've filled and repaired every one I could find.  It's rare for me to be caught by surprise these days.  And I've rarely made the same mistake twice because I wrote the remedies into my documents through the years.  My methods and forms can be the "pothole filler" for you.  Lease with 51 years experience in your leasing documents.  Save on mistakes.  Enhance your reputation.  Reduce damages to a trickle.  Significantly reduce the risk of Tenant injuries and most important . . . Tenant deaths. 

 I've never had a Tenant who knew all I taught them on move-in day on how to stay safe with my "Demonstrations of Appliance & Property Usage".  You will be in awe of what took blood, sweat, tears, years and dollars to produce.  Prospective tenants can smell a Landlord who's only after the money, just like they can sense a fair but firm Landlord who knows exactly what he's doing and has his Tenants' welfare at heart.  I wanted a #1 reputation.  And I got it.  All the rest has followed.
