legal advice: State of CA wants Property Managers to Act as TAX COLLECTORS - 02/26/09 11:56 AM
Has anyone else heard about this? The Franchise Tax Board has decided to revise a tax law effective 1/2009 making it a property manager's responsibility to collect and remit 7% of rents collected out-of-state landlords.
While there is some ambiguity in the explanation of the law as it pertains to residential tenants vs. commercial tenants, we are faced with a serious problem in that the law has one obvious loophole: If a landlord fires their property manager and collects the rent directly from the tenant, no withholding is required.
Fortunately, we are a small company that would only feel these effects … (1 comments)

legal advice: Landlord's Learning Center- Beware the A.D.A. Scammers, A Cautionary Tale of Avoiding Extortion~ - 10/27/08 07:41 PM
As the Broker/Owner of a small (100 single family units) property management company, I try to stay on top of the learning curve. By attending classes on a yearly basis, I keep up to date on legal issues affecting our industry.
I had the privilege of attending a class sponsored by the local Rental Housing Association. The subject was ADA Compliance. ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) was created to insure fair and equal treatment of people with disabilities. Unfortunately, with any new law comes a host of people trying to capitalize on it.
