In order, I would research:1 - Anti Discrimination in Housing, including the questions you can and cannot ask during the tenant screening process.2 - Lease law - how to construct an iron-clad lease3 - Eviction process and law - hopefully you will never need this.Read up on some of the success stories here on BP.

It is important to know history and not over-react to those with an anti-growth, line-my-pockets-with-energy-subsidies agenda.
