There is so much out there about “Tenants Rights” and little to nothing about Landlord’s Rights. Hopefully this page will be the beginning of a list of rights that you, the Landlord, can expect.

  1. Landlord has the right to rent to an applicant who is best suited for the size of the rental as well as the cost.
  2. Landlord has the right to expect Tenant will take care of the rental because it is the Tenant’s home.
  3. Landlord has the right to be notified immediately of any serious problems that may occur; such as leaks, breakdowns of appliances, etc.
  4. Landlord has the right to be given the Rent when its due without having to chase down Tenant.
  5. Landlord has the right to expect that Tenant will use the rental as a home and not as an outside business for either legitimate or illegitimate business.
  6. Landlord has the right to be treated with respect by Tenant, Tenant’s family and household members and Tenant’s guests.
  7. more to follow…

If any Landlord out there can add to this list, please do so either by comment or by sending an email to srpoa1@yahoo.com
