I ended up in/on both by pure coincidence - completely independently - and then now find out about the connection! It just goes to prove - all roads lead to the best source for info! Love the book! Love the site!

If I'd bought this first, I could've saved over $50 on forms alone. Everything I needed, plus tons more was right inside.

RENT ON!!!!!

I used the PM agreement as a template, made some modifications to suit my specific needs and took it to our RE Attorney for review.

Our attorney was impressed.

While I believe in the quality of every book and product I review here. This book may be one of my greatest assets. I actually bought the book while I was on vacation a few years ago. I enjoy reading and since I forgot to bring a book to read I decided to head to the local bookstore and see what they had to offer. During this time I was still pretty new to real estate and property management. I didn't have a lot of knowledge so I was reading anything I could get my hands on that seemed credible. After shifting through an endless bookcase of real estate books I decided to go with "The Landlord’s Kit". I looked through the book and saw it had lots of different documents, which at the time I really needed since I didn't have any.

So in reality I only bought the book because it had some free documents. I got to my hotel and decided to read a chapter or two. Within the first few chapters I realized I may have found one of the greatest assets a landlord could own. What turned into a book of a bunch of documents turned into a whole new way of looking at managing rental properties. This book is filled with nuggets of wisdom, which can turn your problems into profit. Jeffrey Taylor has created a unique system and a way of thinking that is completely unique. Jeffrey Taylor talks about everything that is truly important to being a landlord. Some of the topics he covers are dealing with phone calls, meeting the applicant, rental deposits, applications, repairs, leases, rent, late payments, evictions and so much more.

While some of these topics may seem like the average book to you I promise you they are not. Jeffrey Taylor ideas are so great you will find yourself putting them to work in your real estate business sooner than later. Within the first month I starting applying some of his ideas from this book and I saw a change almost overnight. Many of Mr. Taylor's ideas are so simple you would be surprised you didn't think of them. The way the book is set up is also unique since it is mostly a book containing forms and documents that you can use in your real estate business.

The way it works is Jeffrey Taylor, also known as Mr. Landlord discusses certain areas of the real estate business. He gives his take and the way he handles things. Most of his techniques can literally make you more money than you were seeing before. After he covers a few topics he than gives you all the documents and forms needed to make it happen. He repeats this cycle throughout the book. Each section covering different topics and the forms that follow go with it. Some of the forms and documents included are:

Daily Phone Summary, Rental Application, Holding Deposit Receipt, New Resident Checklist, Pet Application, Verification and authorization for transfer of security deposit, Reason for Non Acceptance, Rental Agreement Property Condition Checklist, Receipt for Keys, Notice of Accountability, Move In Checklist, Option to limit future rent increases, Garage Rental Agreement, Parking Agreement, Disclosure of information of lead based paint or lead based paint hazards, Lease Extension Agreement, Rent Statement Invoice, Returned Check Notice, Late Fee Due, Notice to Perform or quit, Lawn Care Notice and so many others……..

I was just so amazed to find a book for the price I found it for with so much information. So many of the books and products on the market leave you feeling like you were cheated, but this book leaves you feeling like you should have paid more. I personally use the forms in this book and the ideas and advice given by Jeffrey Taylor. If you are new to land lording or a veteran I highly recommend you buy this book and apply whatever works for you. Jeffrey Taylor has other products on the market, but for the price this book is in a league of its own. In conclusion, I have to give a little word of advice. While the documents and forms are provided are wonderful. You should still have your local attorney review them just to make sure they are legal for your state. Every state is a little different and it is better to be safe than sorry.
