Landlord Land Mines gets its First Review!

Yay! We have a review:

“As a real estate investor herself, Purva and her husband, James, went through their share of landlord horror stories. Landlord Land Mines is the book Purva wished they’d had when had when they were getting started. Landlord Land Mines is written both from her own experience and from the experience of many other landlords who she interviewed for the book.

“Forget the theory and the spreadsheets — Landlord Land Mines puts together decades of collective experience and stories from real investors, who teach you what you need to know and what you need to avoid.”

This one was written by John Lockwood on his writing blog.

First Submission for Landlord Landmines Received!

Well actually, the submission was received a while ago, but I guess that’s what happens when your properties are rented - you get lazy, or just terribly involved in a million other projects.

But I want to extend a thank-you to Bruce Sutherland who blogs at www.Landlord-Success.com for his submission and willingness to answer questions for novice investors, should you have any.

Do you have a story or incident you would like to submit for inclusion in the upcoming e-book? Please do so by emailing me at purvabrown@msn.com

Shameless Plug and Call for Submissions

Okay, I’ll be completely honest. I started this blog with the hope of having a blog completely related to landlording and not just in Sacramento. My other blog relates more to real estate in Sacramento and the surrounding areas. Somewhere along the line, most Realtors acquire property and become landlords. So did I. Over time, my interest in it increased and now I hate not being able to buy a rental if I see a good one! Especially in this market.

So, I’m doing the next best thing. I’m writing an e-book about advice for landlords. A book on how not to screw up landlording, if you will. And I’ve been talking with people that have been successful at acquiring rentals and maintaining them. I have learned a lot.

So, if you have any stories you would like to submit, please feel free to comment. I’d love to include your experience into the e-book. Oh, and when it does come out, be sure to buy it. It’ll be pretty inexpensive for the advice it contains.

No, really.
