Since rent is always due on the first of the month, if you pay your rent after the first, then it is considered a "late" payment and you will owe a late fee. If you have a "grace" period (rare) then your payment will still be late after the 1st, but you may not be assessed a late fee until later. Check your individual lease for specifics. In most cases, there is no grace period. The late fee must be paid unless waived by our office in writing. If late fee remains unpaid, your next rent will come up short, since late fees will be deducted from the next rent payment, in accordance with the [...]

Here is some information which we hope will help you prolong the life of your disposal - and save you from getting a bill when you break yours!

It's nothing personal, it's required by law before an eviction can take place. You should not ignore it. If rent is still not received by the time the 3 days in the Notice have been legally counted, you may find yourself subject to eviction suit and / or [...]
