State-specific forms and guidance for residential landlords

This 16th edition organizes residential leasing around a customizable lease template and charts comparing state laws. It also supplies forms for fixed-term and month-to-month rentals, applications, tenant references and credit checks, move-in and move-out correspondence, and property inspections. The subject matter extends beyond drafting: the guide covers security deposits, property entry, disclosures, termination notices, and questions landlords may face when considering applicants’ criminal histories, attorneys’ fees, and tenant-screening reports. Its practical emphasis is on assembling rental documents with attention to the rules associated with the property’s state; the book describes those requirements and should be consulted as a guide, not treated as independent verification of current law.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Residential property owners preparing or updating lease documents
  • Landlords seeking an assortment of rental forms and state-law comparisons
  • Readers evaluating tenant applications and screening reports

Book overview

Create a solid, binding lease that complies with your state laws

 





If you rent out residential real estate, you need to create
documents that are legally valid where your rental property is located. Every
state has its own rules when it comes to what landlords must include in their
leases, and one-size-fits-all forms simply cannot comply with every state's
laws. This book gives you a template and several 50-state law charts, which you
can use to create a lease or monthly rental agreement that will work in your
state. You'll also get customizable versions of key rental forms you need,
including:

 



  • a fixed-term lease



  • a month-to-month rental agreement



  • a rental application



  • tenant reference and credit check forms



  • move-in and move-out letters, and



  • a property inspection checklist.




The 16th edition is completely updated to reflect the latest
landlord-tenant laws--find out what your state requires regarding security
deposits, entry to rental property, disclosures, termination notices, and much
more. This new edition also covers topics relevant to today's landlords, such
as the wisdom of asking for applicants' criminal history, the issues to
consider when asking for attorneys' fees, and how to evaluate tenant screening
reports.
