Renting

While you may be considering renting your home out instead of selling it, you probably have no idea how to get started.  First and foremost, you need to make sure that you get yourself a contract together.  This should be a tenant-friend contract, as you do not want to scare them off, but you definitely want to make sure that you are protecting yourself as well as protecting the home.

The contract should be pretty standard and once everything you have to say on it is done, you should definitely take it to a lawyer and absolutely have it looked at.  That way, everything is going to be legal and you can make sure that your butt is covered!

After that is done – then you move onto the actual renting of your house out and we will explore that a little bit more in detail in the next set of blogs!
