Buy & Hold investors have unique issues and challenges and who knows them better than other Landlords!

At some point in your career, you'll probably be faced with the prospect of filing a suit in Small Claims Court. It sounds like a simple prospect, but Buyer Beware has never been more relevant. We've brought a true been-there done-that pro to talk about this sketchy strategy.

Ruth Jones manages over 200 rental units she and her husband have built, mostly multi-family. She has heard the stories and seen most everything there is to see in the buy-and-hold market. Whether negotiation, eviction or Small Claims Court, Ruth knows the ropes. She'll give us her take on:

  • When it's time for Small Claims Court
  • What's the procedure
  • Long-term vs short-term strategy
  • Winning a judgment isn't collecting
  • Is it worth the effort

Join us for an informative lunch hour. Learn the ins and outs of Small Claims Court, hear some great stories and have a fabulous lunch with your fellow landlords. See you at Mimi's!
