 Good Information for the Beginner July 12, 2010

All-in-all, a comprehensive book for someone just starting in the rental business. It would appear that the single most important resources to have are: primary/secondary cleaning persons and a reliable "handyman". It would also seem that "texting" has now been added to the cell phone and email as preferred communication techniques.
 Not bad... April 14, 2010

this is the first book I have read on this topic and I felt that it was fairly informative. I read all of the reviews on it before I purchased it and some of the negative ones were a little off base. The only problem I had with the book was the constant reference to different websites, most of which are affiliated with the company she works for. Other than that, I thought it was a good book with lots of information.

Can't imagine a better book on this topic. Very helpful December 8, 2009
William Graf (Seattle, WA United States)
We have had rental properties for years and are trying this short term rental out for the first time. After reading the book, we could tell that not armed with her information, we would likely hit may potholes and learn our lessons the hard way. She references many useful websites, gives you access to forms and tutorials and much more. A+++ Truly a fabulous resource.
 A lot of 'TOSH' June 3, 2009

She makes it sound like renting is a sure-thing with example upon example about how properties sold out. I followed her recommendations and ended up spending a lot of money on advertising sites that yielded nothing but solicitations from other advertising sites, only to get one or two rentals a year from one particular site which was specific to the area.
She also fails to mention what a huge pain in the a** renters can be, how they relentlessly complain and how some will do anything to cut an additional amount off the rental price.
The book is a good start (since there are none other out there), but there's no replacement for experience.
