Book Helps Landlords Find Good Renters Given the recent sluggishness of the stock market, real estate investment is hotter than ever. And profitable property investment generally means finding suitable renters, which is often easier said than done. When property owner and landlord Don Conrad searched for a resource to aid in his own search for tenants, he was unable to find one that focused solely on finding the right people to occupy his properties. So this first-time author took matters into his own hands and wrote How to Find That Quality Tenant: The Five Simple Steps of Tenant Selection. "There have been many books written on how to get rich owning rental real estate," says Conrad. "But I could find nothing on how to find good tenants to occupy properties once they were purchased." He goes on to explain that most books have only brief chapters on finding suitable renters, and the information provided is frequently shallow and weak. How to Find That Quality Tenant provides a proven yet simple plan for tenant selection. "I've come up with a system that works exceptionally well," says Conrad. "Since I've been in this business, I've never had a tenant vandalize my property. I've never had one skip in the night. I've never been threatened. It took more than twelve years before I had to finally start an eviction process, and they even cleaned the place before they left." This unique book concentrates only on finding good tenants--no other aspects of real estate investment are covered--and it is intended to be used as a hands-on, step-by-step guide. "Use what you need in step one; then proceed on to step two. Complete step two; then move on to three. By the time you've started step five, you should have a tenant of higher quality and more suited to your needs than before you read this book," explains Conrad. The author emphasizes that the system was developed by a small-time landlord to help the small-time landlord. The beginner property owner--the person who has a few properties to supplement their retirement--will benefit most, but experienced landlords will gain new insight from the book as well.
