We just bumped up our podcast library overnight!  Today’s episode is a summary, about the 10 location-specific episodes we added into the My Life As A Landlord Library, which are LIVE NOW.  The summary today features Nevada, Pennsylvania, Alberta, Nunavut, Quebec, West Virginia, North Dakota, Iowa, Arkansas and Arizona

For each of these locations, there is an entire podcast dedicated to each State or Province.  In each one we explore the overview of the housing guiding document for each location, answering the same four questions: 

1) What are the basics of the State or Province or Territories’ Tenancy or Housing Document,

2) What are the nuances of this location – what is different that stands out?,

3) Some guidance about abandoned items left behind by a tenant in a rental in each State or Province, and

4) Where to get help in your local area in that State or Province. 

Today’s episode is NOT all inclusive for any of these locations, mind you – you must research further in your specific area including your County, Regional District, Parish, City or any other Governing Body that involves your rental location, but today’s summary episode will get you started!

As a first time real estate investor, you may seek one of the many "guru" education programs offered to help get you started.  But my guest today may offer a different perspective on how to get your real estate business going.  Ron Cedillo is a long time real estate investor and recommends to anyone just starting doing what he did:  local mentorship.  In today's show we talk about balancing life, working hard, and playing even harder.

Today’s episode is all about property managers!  One of the biggest questions I see on social media in the landlord forums is about property managers.  How to decide if you need one, if you do need one, how to hire one, and then what do you do if you need to have an awkward conversation if your PM is not performing.  Even more awkward, what happens if your PM fires YOU?  Listen is as Spencer Sutton from Evernest Property Management answers all things for PMs and self-managing landlords.

As real estate investors, we are taught "mold is gold", smoked-in properties are "okay", but when it comes to Meth - DEAL BREAKER.  But what happens when you rent your unit out and within 90 days a tenant not only smokes meth in your property, they are manufacturing meth in your property?  This is exactly what Kathi McCarty encountered as a first time landlord.  Fun stuff right?  She tells us her story, how it happened, and what she is doing now to help real estate investors avoid this happening to you!

My guest today has a great philosophy:  you’re going to pay for your landlord education one way or another.  The question is how much pain do you want to endure, and how long do you want the pain to last?  My interview with a fellow international real estate investor, with rentals in the US, Dominican Republic and in Canada brings property management to a whole new perspective.  Giancarlo Carangelo and I discuss tenant word play, how to avoid discrimination and 1-star google reviews, lessons learned in renovation mistakes and how to keep great tenants.  All that and more in today’s show!

Earlier in 2025 I was asked to speak about rentals at a Toastmasters Club called “Money Matters” and the meeting was all about rentals.  During that meeting I thoroughly enjoyed playing a Toastmasters game called “Table Topics”, but the subject was – you guessed it – rentals.  Today’s episode is part 3 of a 5 part discussion, Table Topics style.  Our topic today:  affordability of rentals.  Join Dan Dyble, Karen Hall and me discuss rentals, table topic style.

The two biggest questions I see on social media about landlording are:  how do I get this person out of my house, and how do I get my money?  In today's episode, I discuss a tool that might be helpful in finding a tenant who has "skipped town" leaving you with a bill.  Skip Tracing is an interesting tool that allows landlords to find folks who don't want to be found.  Join me in today's episode where I tell you all about it!
