I’ve seen landlords successfully sued for large amounts due to refusing to remove dead trees resulting in injury; not complying with swimming pool enclosure laws; having window frames in such bad condition that window ac units fell out; refusing to disclose existence of toxic mold; not eradicating lead paint; and many more.  

Always review your lease agreement and consult local laws to ensure compliance with all regulations.

There are some hatemongers that don't have a clue about law and this line of business but deliberately spread false information about wholesaling on BP to intimidate and mislead.

There are quite a few houses here that have mother in law suites, or basements that would be easy to convert.

California is challenging because of high prices and landlord-tenant laws but buying out of state brings about a different set of challenges - being 2000 miles away puts me at a disadvantage.

On July 1st, they sent a text message saying they did not agree with the rent increase and gave us a check for $900, subtracting the "overpayment" from June and stating they would be paying the $1350 moving forward.Our town does not have rent control (we checked prior to raising the rent) but we do acknowledge that raising the rent by 33% could be seen as unconscionable although NJ law does not specify a dollar amount or percentage on rent increases.

Try to find ways to hide it.Talk to law enforcement and see if it violates the City code.

I suspect that many places have similar laws to this. 

There are no laws against buying a property or anything for that matter for one price today and selling it for a higher price tomorrow.  

I've been eager to get in the game and I'm lucky enough to have a seasoned, career investor on my team in my father-in-law.- I love the area and I've been looking at multi-family in Montclair/Nutley/Verona/Bloomfield for about a year now.
