charlotte q | My tenant who is usually on time is late this month/..what to do? |

If your tenant has a good track record, assume she's good for it. This is really a very individual decision. You could be incredibly impatient and file for eviction if you don't have the money in two weeks and you could wait months and assume she'll catch up. I guess it's all about how long you can afford to take the hit. Is her rent due on the 1st? It's the nineteenth now. Is she almost 3 weeks late? What does she say about when she'll have the money?
I believe from my personal experience that a landlord should take very, very seriously evicting a tenant because it affects the tenant's ability to house themselves for many years after the fact. It should be used only if you've asked the tenant to make other arrangements after they've caused problems or not paid for a couple of months and they've refused to go voluntarily. |

If your tenant is usually on time. Something must have happened for your tenant to be late. Just call and see if everything is okay. Its important to keep a good relationship with your tenant. But if they're just living there and refusing to pay the rent. Thats a different story. Anyway, just call and see whats up. |

ask her if there's a good reason..or hopefully she will explain to you y its late...if it seems like it could be problem i would warn her, otherwise let it slide this time. |

If your tenant talked to you beforehand, maybe you should cut them some slack. It seems like money is tight for everyone these days so a considerate landlord is a blessing. Of course, don't let it become a habit and only give him/her a couple extra days to pay. If they haven't even spoken to you about it, call or try to talk to them before fining them. Maybe they're just really embarrassed that they couldn't pay on time this month. In general, I think it's a good idea to at least try and make contact to find out what exactly is going on. |

just keep your cool. dont do anything crazy that can get you in trouble and be the one paying her the money plus more...talk to him/her about it give one more week, and see what happens but dont say oh it's okay |

What we do in these situations is:
1. Talk to them- find out what is going on. If they have always been on time - there is probably a good reason for it this time.
2. Tell them that this is ok ONLY as long as they let you know what is going on and that they do not make a habit of it. They need to know that you are not going to kick them out because of an emergency.
3. Tell them that if it starts happening frequently that you will charge them a late fee. |

well beings they are usually ontime i would give them a chance and see what happens. i mean if you evict them...whats the chances of finding another good tenant who will be ontime? plus fixing the place up and all that other junk that comes with kicking someone out. times are hard right now and maybe they just hit a rough spot. if they did not contact you to inform you of being late then i would definately send them a notice. you dont want them to think your a pushover cuz they will keep it up but id say let it slide. at least talk with them and work with them if you can |
