The Next LANDLORD BOOT CAMP Seminar Will Be Held on Saturday, April 13, 2024.
My next Landlord Boot Camp for the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin, Inc. (formerly known as the AASEW) will be held on Saturday, April 13, 2024. This Boot Camp will be an in-person event. There will not be a virtual option.
There have been so many changes in how evictions and other Landlord-Tenant law matters are handled post COVID that I strongly recommend that you attend this Boot Camp to get caught up on all the changes, even if you have attended Boot Camp in the past.
- Attendees will receive a searchable 100 page + PDF Boot Camp manual, making it easier to search and reference items in the future. You will also have an option to purchase for $50 a printed manual.
- As in prior Boot Camps, the live Q & A session will be part of this event.
- If you attend the Boot Camp lunch will be provided.
