Rent Collection Methods for technology adverse tenants
I closed on a 12 unit apartment recently and just starting to get the inherited tenants (11/12) onto Hemlane to pay and communicate. There is a few old tenants, some with dementia and one that doesn't even have a cell phone. How can I collect rent from these tenants without them paying me at my home address? PayNearMe is not for small landlords like myself. What other options are there?
- ACH - no way (possible to pay partial rent payments)
- Check, they have to mail to my address
- Pickup - I am in the military, could be deployed, etc...
Thank you, and hopefully there are options like paynearme, that was recommended in the managing rental properties. I will try to get some of the older tenants that are willing to pay online. Some have been living there for 30 years.

You could get a P.O. Box, and have the tenants send the checks there. A friend or spouse could check the P.O. Box while you're deployed.
