What All First Time Landlords Should Know

Posted in Real Estate Investment

Becoming a first time landlord can be a very lucrative proposition if you know what you’re doing. Unfortunately, most first-time landlords don’t know what they’re doing, so it’s very important to get information from people in the know.

First, learn the rules. Every state’s laws are different. Knowing Maryland property codes, especially with regard to required safety and security items, as well as any affordable housing laws, is of the utmost priority. For details, you should speak with your realtor. Also be aware that regular homeowner’s insurance does not cover tenants; you have to switch to landlord insurance.
