Through our discussion on the highs and lows of being a landlord we will learn: should you charge the maximum rent, how to screen tenants properly, when not to use a property manager, is the Residential Tenancy Office friend or foe, why can it take up to 6 months to remove a tenant that doesn't pay rent, and much more.
