My tenant has been irregular with rent payments but has made the payments nonetheless. So far I have not charged a late fees yet. Can I charge the late fees cumulatively before the end of the lease?
Send monthly statements to your tenant indicating the late fees they owe, and you should be able to collect them.
We have a tenant who has not paid the last month of rent in there previous unit but has moved into another unit or ours. This tenant said they would make monthly payments towards the past due rent but have not. Can I legally charge a late fee for each month the previous units rent is not paid in full? They are current on their current unit they live in.
