Review :
"This lively, practical and occasionally humorous new book... is another in the Nolo series that makes learning about legal topics interesting and almost fun." San Jose Mercury News "Get Portman's Renters Rights: The Basics... and research quirks in rental law specific to the state where your teen will be going to college." Houston Chronicle "If landlords nationwide were to recommend [this] book to renters, I'd bet only half of today's landlord/tenant problems would exist in the future." Orlando Sentinel "Portman, an attorney who specializes in landlord-tenant law, and Stewart, an author who specializes in real estate and other consumer issues, explain the basics of renters' rights. They address how to find an apartment, leases and rental agreements, rent rules, security deposits, discrimination, roommates, repairs and maintenance, privacy rights, how tenancies change and end, getting the deposit back, landlord retaliation, rent control, and getting help. This edition has been updated and revised to reflect state laws. The book is not meant for those renting commercial property or space in a mobile home park, hotel, or marina, or tenants in government-subsidized or government-owned housing." Eithne O'Leyne, Editor Ringgold, Inc. ProtoView
