In many markets across the country selling a home has become exceedingly difficult.  Phoenix is not immune to this problem with record inventories the likes of which have never been seen before.  Under these circumstances many folks, whether by choice or necessity, begin to consider renting their home out as a potential solution.  Though renting one's home out has many potential benefits there are many potential pitfalls and rules that a prospective landlord should know about.

With that in mind, I came across this recent article from the East Valley Tribune.  Numerous issues are addressed including

• regulations
• discriminatory housing practices
• advertising
• tenants rights
• upkeep
• professional property management

All of these are potentially major items to consider before taking the plunge and becoming a landlord.  Strive to understand all of these in detail before taking the next big step!

Thanks for Reading :)
