House for Rent

Everyday adventures and lessons learned over 20 years renting single-family homes to a wide variety of tenants. Tenants come and go. Some even come and stay a long time. Most are totally unremarkable; they pay the rent on time, let you know when something needs fixing, sometimes do minor repairs themselves, and give proper notice when they plan to move out. They usually leave the property in decent condition. Then there are the others who present a wide range of challenges. This book tends to focus on some of the more challenging tenants who have come and, thankfully, gone. They can drive you crazy when you're dealing with them, but in hindsight they are what makes the life of a landlord an interesting adventure.
