WWYD? - Breached Tenant Proposes Payment Plan
Recently I had a tenant break a lease with 3 months remaining. The unit was in good condition, but she abandoned the property and simply sent in her keys (not written or verbal notice).
I was able to find her new address and her new cell phone. I spoke with her and she said that she doesn't want to go to court and is willing to do a payment plan to pay for the missed rent.
What would you do? Would there be any unintended consequences to agreeing to a payment plan? (ie, forfeiting future opportunity to go to small claims court if need be?)
