A guide for Jefferson Parish condo owners who rent their properties

 

A standard lease is never standard and is a complex set of issues for the property owner and made even more complex in the condominium environment.  A good lease is a work in progress and changes over time as experience is gained and as laws change.  Remember always, a good landlord is one that leases a desirable residence without burdening the community.

 

Below is a set of documents for your perusal, some required by law, some required by the condo associations and some which you need to protect yourself.    By all means if you find changes are necessary please email them to info@datakik.com so all may benefit from your experience.  “The Landlord Guide” is provided by www.datakik.com  It represents hundreds of hours of research and creation time; however, your use is without any warranty what-so-ever and is not a substitute for legal advice.   Copyright Notice: While you may link to this site, you may not copy its info to another site or otherwise claim any of the material as your own.
