(2 stars) - Dumbed down info
Overly easy reading and very basic this book tends to really dumb down what many property owners/managers should probably already know. Just putting much of it in one book. Much of it could have been condensed into maybe half as many chapters. Text size and writing style make this much more a beginers book than for a veteran to pick up some new tips. The CD is a nice touch and the forms could be valuable- if you don't already have some or all of such things on file.

(5 stars) - Great book for first time landlords
The Rental Property Manager's Toolbox is a great book for first time landlords. It gives a summary of all major areas yet gives enough details and forms to help you with the specifics too. I would recommend a legal book for your state be purchased as well as this book doesn't go into the legal aspect as much.

(4 stars) - Very Happy
I have learned allot about renting from this book. It's nice to have the contracts on the cd. This is my 1st book on property mang. I don't know how to compare it to others. I do know that it is a well rounded book that answered all of the questions I had. I wish I had this book before I started renting, it would have saved me money and time. So as a 1st book goes I highly recommend it.

(4 stars) - The Rental Property Manager's Toolbox etc.
greetings! I purchased the CD. It had extensive information. I wanted a
program dealing with accounting for just a few properties. It would be
excellent for someone having a lot of properties. I returned the CD
unopened when I realized it was not want I needed. Amazon kindly gave a
refund.

(4 stars) - very good but lacking...
The Rental Property Manager's Toolbox is very well written and a very nearly complete book for new landlords, but not quite. As a new and unwilling landlord this book was a great & definite help in overcoming a very steep learning curve and a great deal of ignorance on my part. But having said that, where's the lease? A number of forms are included but there is no boilerplate lease. Also, on page 152 under credit history no mention is given of any of the numerous websites that one can purportedly get credit information on prospective tenants. I had to take my chances on what I could find out myself and talked to two professional property managers, neither of whom get credit reports either. I had to go to a lawyer software program for 1 or 2 other items as well. A solid 4 star however!
