How can I learn about landlord rights?

Landlord Rights for Rental Home Businesses

Before becoming a landlord of a rental home, it is important to understand the differences between landlord rights and tenant responsibilities. Even more confusing is the fact that California landlord rights may be very different than those in New York or Georgia. Within these varied sets of rights are a number of categories of landlord rights and tenant responsibilities—from collecting rent and managing the property to running background checks and eviction rights—that all must be addressed when operating a rental home business.

Sites like Landlord.com can help homeowners understand their rights and responsibilities as well as similarly explain those of the tenant. Each state has a number of state government websites that also provide listings and explanations on various laws that govern landlord rights and detail tenant responsibilities. Other methods to learn more about landlord rights include a number of helpful handbooks, such as Property Management for Dummies, Landlording, and Landlord's Legal Guide, all found in bookstores and online book retailers.
