It's the 15th and I'm 3/4 through getting all rents
As I write this, I have 3 late rents to collect of my 10 doors. All tenants have been contacted and reminded to communicate if there are issues with the unit, jobs or their ability to pay rent/on time. I called and texted each tenant. Collected emails for the ones I didn't have. I found Zenlordpro software to give me the landlord the ability to receive rents electronically and gives the tenant more options to pay rent ACH or by credit card. As well as maintenance reporting without having to physically be there.
When talking to tenants, empathy towards Covid-19 related issues or layoffs, pay cuts or less hours is a must. These are unprecedented times. Most of my tenants paid on time and if we can collect the last few my units this month, it should make things easier for the coming months. There will be more jobs lost, some will have hardships, some just won't pay due to no teeth in the eviction process. I am thankful, my partner and I have good quality tenants. I hope we can continue to help provide housing in the interesting times.
Regards,
