What key things do first time landlords need to know

[Joanne Hanson]

I’m looking to invest in my first rental property in the next year or two. I’d like to learn a little bit about being a landlord before I do so I’m compliant with laws and tax requirements etc. The rest I’ll probably learn by doing. By what are those key things that a first time landlord should know. I’m based in Minnesota, so not sure if things are different depending on the state? Thanks!
