Contains concise information on how to make money with a single-family home without getting into financial or legal hot water.

Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Portman, Bray, and Stewart write for people who rent out or want to rent out a single-family house or condominium and want to do most of the work themselves. Increasingly, they say, people become landlords suddenly and accidentally, and need to fit that work around existing work and family obligations. Their topics include preparing and marketing a rental property, managing rental income to maximize tax deductions, keeping things shipshape: repairs and maintenance, exiting the rental property business, and renting out a room in your home.."

"Virtually every book from Nolo Press can be highly recommended without reservation." Robert Bruss, Nationally Syndicated Real Estate Columnist
