Live Rent Free and Get Paid a Good Salary, Learn How To Become An On-Site Property Manager, a New Book by Leona Fleming

This book offers a solution for many who are interested in a career change, or a way to avoid paying high rents. As rental rates reach an all time high in Southern California, the book explains how to live rent-free or pay reduced rent by becoming an on-site property manager.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) December 14, 2004 -- Leona Fleming has managed rental properties in three states, California, Illinois, and Nevada and currently teaches a class in apartment rental management.

The need for apartment managers continues to grow for more than 50% of families in California live in apartments and California law requires a responsible person to reside on the property where there are 16 or more apartment units. This is one reason she shares her inside knowledge regarding how to properly manage rental property.

Another reason the author says she wrote the book is so readers could learn from her experience. Highlights include, screening tenants, advertising, providing customer service, collecting rent, handling complaints, avoiding evictions, hiring and firing employees, and shopping for companies to provide services such as, landscaping, roofing, plumbing, or pool maintenance. A chapter on finding a job in the property management field using your current skills and tips on interviewing are also found in chapter 17 of the book.

Property owners, current managers, people interested in working at home, single parents, and those tired of long commutes to work, will find the information in this book well worth reading. Many resources, sample letters, and landlord/tenant scenarios, are also provided.

The book was released on December 10, 2004 and is available in audio or print format.
