Kudos and a special thank you goes out to Ron LeShane for implementing these new features to the secure membership web site:
Recent recordings of NWCLA zoom meeting (members only)

With the help of Massachusetts Landlord/Tenant Law Attorney, Inessa Shur of the Shur Law Group we have provided our members with something they have been asking for, for years; Massachusetts Tenant-At-Will and Massachusetts Lease Rental Agreements. These forms are especially written and designed to adhere to and be in compliance with Massachusetts Housing Laws.

Dear Fellow Landlords and Property Managers
The NWCLA was formed to provide a structured forum for landlords and property managers to get informed on the changing areas of rental real estate and the laws that govern the business we are in.
We want to provide guidance for those new to the business as well as use our strength as an organization to prevent negative legislation and promote positive changes in Massachusetts,
We own property in one of the toughest states to be a landlord in, the scale is not tipped in our favor, and we must work together to run our businesses in the strictest manner, and encourage changes that would give equality back to the legal housing system.
We are all in the business of providing housing; together we can work to better our community and our real estate. We urge you to consider joining our organization. The benefits are many to belong to an upstanding group that works on issues that effect you and your livelihood.
See you all on the second Thursday of the month
