Tristan’s Landlord Boot Camp 2026
A One-Day Intensive Seminar
Manage Your Rental Properties Like a Pro
A full day of practical, Wisconsin-specific residential landlord-tenant law — from tenant screening and fair housing to evictions and security deposits. Taught by the attorney who drafts the rental forms that you already use.
There is only space for 60 attendees – register to save your spot!
Landlording is a business. Treat it like one.
Owning and managing rentals is not a hobby — it is a business. Spend one day learning the practical, Wisconsin-specific legal knowledge that you need to manage your rental properties with confidence.
Level Up Your Business
Educate yourself on how to manage your rental properties the right way and avoid the mistakes that cost landlords time, money, and sleepless nights.
Connect With Your Peers
Spend the day alongside other investors, landlords, and property managers who are in the rental industry, just like you.
Taught by the attorney who wrote the book and writes the forms.
Attorney Tristan Pettit wrote The Landlord’s Companion: A Comprehensive Handbook of Residential Landlord-Tenant Law in Wisconsin, which was published in 2024. He also drafts many of the Landlord-Tenant forms sold by Wisconsin Legal Blank — the documents landlords across the state rely on every day. Tristan has over 30 years of experience as an attorney and has spent more than 20 of those years focusing solely on Landlord-Tenant law.
Each attendee receives a 300+ page manual that includes:
Tristan’s seminar outlines
Landlord-Tenant law forms
And much more!
Past attendees have said that the manual alone is worth the cost of admission.
