    Product Description

    The most comprehensive handbook on tenants' rights in Massachusetts: written in easy-to-understand terms, this volume focuses on private rental housing. It answers questions on security deposits, rent, repairs, evictions, housing discrimination, lead poisoning, mobile homes, and tenants in foreclosed properties. Sample forms, letters, and checklists provide tenants and their advocates with the tools needed to prevent problems, gain protections, and communicate effectively with landlords, boards of health, and courts. A one-stop reference, this book also provides the legal back-up you need through an expansive directory and glossary.

    Tenants, community groups, legal services, individual tenants, and nonlawyer community advocates are eligible to purchase this title at $35. Please call MCLE's Customer Service Team at 800-966-6253 to place your order.
