Rents - gotta have rents!

I knew the prior owners were having to pound on doors to collect rents and we're just not going to do that. I think it's important to teach tenants early and firmly, rents go to the post office, on time, if not on time, late fee must be included, if later than 5 days and we haven't communicated, there's going to be a problem. Having completed a thorough due diligence, I expected this to be a learning curve for them but am still surprised that on July 1st I received, count 'em, NOT ONE RENT CHECK!

If you want to be further amused, here's the post...

If anyone has had brilliant success with this kind of transition, I'd love the feedback.
