    5 out of 5 stars CA Landlord's Law Book: Rights and Responsibilities   September 9, 2008
    This book was recommended to me by a lawyer friend. I have a couple of rental homes and was looking for quick, legal answers and was very surprised to see that it met all my needs. It is easy to comprehend and navigate. I highly recommend it.

    This book has a lot of valuable information that you can use immediately. It has tear out forms and electronic forms which made it very easy for us to tailor the forms to our needs. I highly would recommend this book for any one looking to understand the basic rights and responsibilities of a landlord.


    5 out of 5 stars Excellent book for any California Landlord   March 21, 2008
    We purchased some rental property last year and within 2 months I was having to do an eviction.
    I purchased both The California Landlord's Law book: Rights and Responsibilites and The California Landlord's Law Book: Evictions.

    These were both excellent books. Easy to read and understand. Completely helped me with the eviction process (first one that I ever had to do).

    I highly recommend these books to anyone who is thinking about becoming a landlord or is currently a landlord that manages their own property. They give you alot of information about what rights the tenants have and what rights you as the landowner do not have.



    5 out of 5 stars A must have for any landlord in California   December 31, 2007
    I purchased this book on the recommendation of a friend and I am so glad I purchased this book. It answered all of my questions and more. It is easy to read and well organized. I am a first time landlord and I feel I am in good hands with this book. The forms this book provides are also impressive, from rental agreements, to rental applications, it covers everything you can think of and does it extremely well. I cannot say enough good things about this book.


    5 out of 5 stars Best Landlord Book out There   November 1, 2007
      4 out of 4 found this review helpful

    This is a great book for the residential landlord. It covers every aspect of what the typical landlord might face: from screening tenants, maintaining the place, returning the security deposit and evicting dirty rotten lease breachers.

    The book is well formatted and easy to read. There is a section that covers every city that has rent control (something that I wasn't able to find anywhere else). But most importantly, it has lots of practical advice on the business of being a landlord--it is not just dry, legal stuff.

    The book contains dozens of useful forms in three formats: paper (tear out sheets), .pdf and .rtf. The rtf forms are great because you can type everything, modify the form to meet your needs and end up with a clean document. But why not include .doc format documents? Word is such a popular word processing program, that .doc format should be included.

    This book is focused at the small landlord facing typical situations. It is not a treatise on California landlord-tenant law.

    The other commentator who had a tenant pay the first year rent in advance had a tenant that comes along once in a blue moon. To criticize this book for not covering this rare event is like criticizing Cosmopolitan magazine for not covering the Middle East. And every attorney is going to tell his/her client that form books are out of date--to do otherwise would put the atty out of business.
