In california... is it legal for your landlord to charge you a late fee if you mailed on time but he got late?

It depends on if in your lease, it says "Recieved by" or "Sent by"

depends on ur contract/Leese with your landlord, but im NOT sure about the califonia law, and if there is a specific law regarding it.


westsida
maybe our landlords are related? Mine's a moron.


Natasha B
you should give your lanlord post-dated checks if you have a 1 yr lease.Makes life easy..and you know for sure they he can't charge you late fees , unless you don't have sufficient funds in your account.


komodo_gold
You may want to ask a lawyer (or city official that deals with housing), but my guess is they shouldn't be able to if it was post-marked on the due date.

However, because of stuff like this, it's often recomended that you send payment in at least a few days before the due date, so they have no qualms about "OMG your payment is late, I'm going to charge you extra!" (and I would send it insured, certified, or registered so that if the post office loses your mail, it's their butt on the line, not yours).

Yes it is your responsibility to get it to him by the late date. Doesnt matter how.

yes ,being a land lord I know and in california,you are to mail it to where it gets to him on time.or yes you will be subject to a late fee. but I go by the post mark and then decide if a late fee is nessary.


london_calling
Depends on when the post office time stamped the envelope. If the post office processed it before the date it was due, you're fine.

On our properties we go by the postmark, because we know how jacked up the mail service is here. We sent out 3-day notices on the 5th once and they were not postmarked until the 8th. Had to virtually loose 3 more days of looking for our $$$ due to postal service.

Yes, as far as I know, it's legal.

Probably, I'm sure your lease says he is to RECEIVE it on time...
