7 Things to Expect in States that Favor Tenants

May 28, 2018

Before the typical new investor pulls the trigger on buying their first rental property, they’ll do mountains of research on cap rates, cash-on-cash returns, and market economics. Those are all good things, but an equally important factor tends to get swept under the rug: landlord/tenant legislation.

When choosing where to invest, knowing the legal landscape can make a big difference. 

It would take an eternity to delve into each state’s specific laws, so instead Tom and Jared cover the generals. That way, you can be aware of certain trouble areas when you enter tenant-friendly states.

 

“We don't have to fear laws if we're fair to our tenants.” –Tom Obenchain

 

In This Episode of ROI Wealth Watch:

In states that favor tenants:
