Interviews

Every landlord should be buying Every Landlord’s Legal Guide, our big and expensive book that includes a lease and seventeen additional chapters on everything from discrimination to terminating a tenancy. But not every landlord will buy it! For those who want just a lease and that’s all, thank you very much, this little book is for them. The alternative is a stationery-store form that is guaranteed to not comply with your state’s law, setting the stage for legal problems down the road. Start things right with a legal lease.
