Today we amp up the anxiety by talking about helping people public speak AND talking about awkward conversations with tenants.  Today is part 5 of a very dynamic discussion-based way to talk about rentals:  Table Topics Style.  What is that you ask?  It is a game in an organization called Toastmasters, designed to make you think on your feet and gain confidence in very short responses.  

Dan Dyble and Karen Hall join me in today’s rental roundtable discussing the social and cultural aspect of providing rentals, with an international twist.

The experts say “show me your 5 best friends and I’ll tell you who YOU are”.  Who do I hang out with?  Folks who make me level up.  Today’s episode is no different.  These folks have LOTS more real estate experience than Mike and I, they are real estate mentors, and have even launched their own podcast; what are they up to now?  They have jumped into data centers.  Paul and Letitia Montelongo join me today to discuss their past, present and where they are headed, and explain why they have jumped into a different wrinkle of real estate.

So many new landlords make mistakes that they don’t even realize they are making.  They don’t have a lease, they don’t know fair housing laws or maybe they discriminate in their ads.  YIKES.  This can end up in a lawsuit that may find the landlord in the wrong.  Joining me today is Florida attorney Tim Baldwin, who focuses on landlord and tenant cases.  He and I discuss the importance of having a comprehensive written lease, how to approach cameras at a rental property, and much MUCH more!

Renting to roommates can be an interesting situation for landlords, especially if the roommates are not financially involved.  Today's show is the final episode all about tenant transitions, and we talk about the nuances about individual roommates renting your long-term units.  As adding roommates to the lease is something that landlords often encounter, I discuss my best practices about accepting only full payments for rent, deposits, and only returning full deposits.

Sometimes life throws you someone in your path you didn’t know that you needed, but you absolutely did.  My guest today was exactly the person I needed to talk to about landlording - specifically, landlord “friendly” locations.  She is based in Calgary, AB, Canada, and has her own criteria for landlord friendly provinces.  Join me as we discuss the differences and similarities of the Canadian provinces and territories, and where you should and may you shouldn’t jump in as a real estate investor.  Here’s the article that started it all:  Landlord Friendly Provinces

As a landlord, step one is finding a great tenant, and step two is keeping them happy.  But how do you do this correctly, for the long-term, without going broke?  I’ve asked for some legal insight today from a California tenancy expert - who focuses on non-eviction cases - to help us figure out how to avoid unknowingly doing something illegal, screening tenants, reduce insurance liabilities and avoiding lawsuits in general.  Join me to learn from Edwin Schwartz from Messner Reeves LLP some behind-the-scenes of what gets landlords sued and how to avoid it.

Today's show starts a three-part series all about tenant transitions.  In today's episode, I discuss one of the biggest secrets to marketing your unit is finding the dealbreakers as FAST as possible.  You don't want to waste anyone's time in marketing your units so get information out and back as quickly as possible.  Maybe having only a shower is a deal breaker for a tenant.  Maybe a tenant who smokes is a deal breaker for you.  Today's episode is all about how to get the marketing information for your rental unit out and then create the action item for that potential tenant.
