Don’t Miss This Latest Presentation by Well-Known Property Management Expert, Patti Widget of Widget’s Way
Landlords who have been in the business of rental housing for a long time know that relationships with tenants can be made to be “smooth and easy,” or become “rough and rocky,” depending on a number of factors. Often, it’s the tenants themselves who are at issue—they can be trying! But sometimes, one of the factors is the landlord. Rental property investing and management is a tough business, and being a pushover is quick path to disaster.
Many landlords find that tenants can be “trained” to follow the rules and requirements of their leases. This is not to say that tenants are like puppies or aren’t people who deserve respect—of course they do! To say tenants can be trained is more of way of encouraging good behavior and enforcing consequences for breaking the terms of a lease. When landlords fail at this, they are in for a rough and rocky tenant relationship. So learn how to make your landlord life “smooth and easy.”
Our property management expert, Patti Widget from Widget’s Way, will provide you with the advice you need to help you to best deal with the “good and the bad” of any tenant situation you find yourself in, and how you can best address many of the tenant / landlord issues you might be facing now or in the future. Attending this webinar will help you to avoid problem tenant and courtroom situations that can turn against you – we guarantee it!
