Learn from my pain and suffering, avoid the pitfalls, that I fell into.

Whether you own/manage one rental unit or hundreds, this book is a perfect blend of stories and step-by-step instruction.

About the author

Michael P. Currie is a landlord, property manager, author, and owner of the company Landlord by Design. Based in Canada, Michael got his start in the early 2000s as an investor flipping houses, and by the end of 2009, he was using a buy and hold strategy with his investments. As a member of the IPOANS (Investment Property Owners of Nova Scotia) organization, Michael further gained extensive experience with property managers, tenants, tradespeople, contractors, and more.

After discovering a need for property management education, Michael started the Landlord by Design blog in 2015 to offer guidance and share his expertise. While it began as part-therapy, part-record keeping, Michael soon realized that many readers wanted to learn how to participate in real estate investing in addition to property management.

Michael published his first book, Landlord by Design: Complete Guide to Residential Property Management, in 2016. This effort was the result of trial and error while working with various investment strategies from tax sales and student properties to zero-money-down investing.

Michael lives in Nova Scotia, Canada, with his wife, Shelly, and their two children. When he isn’t writing about real estate, Michael can be found spending time with his family, volunteering with his favourite nonprofit organizations, or enjoying the social clubs of Halifax.
