want to block partial payments

[Grant Delmonte]

Hey guys,

I've been accepting rent through venmo and everything was fine for almost six months. Then, the rent payment stopped. I tried everything I could to reach our to my tenants, email, texting, phone call but nothing worked. I served an eviction notice and got a rent payment the next day... for $50. Guys, the rent for my apartment was $2000 per month. Long story short, we went to court. Turns out that because I had accepted their payment, I had to start the eviction all over again. I was furious. The tenants are finally out, thank goodness, but I don’t want to make the same mistake in the future. For those that use property management software, what do you use and does it block partial payments? I can’t help feel like I could have avoided this nightmare if I had been better prepared. Thanks in advance!
