Two weeks ago, we followed the Seattle rental market and a property manager’s response to the situation here (link 5). This week in rental property, we visit a man who is taking action. We then turn our attention to the Newark Advocate who brings us a story of a stubborn city council who are refusing to develop stricter property maintenance codes. Spring is around the corner, and Tctimes brings an article into focus that offers a few tips on how to liven up your property in our third link. Fourthly, we visit The Orange County Register about lower and higher rents. Lastly, we look at channel 5’s news story on tenants. Everything you need to know below.
