A huge thank you to you all!!!
Hello all,
I just wanted to thank you all for all the tips and advice that you all have offered me. I have been a landlord for over 10 yrs and have learned so much from you all. I had a tenant that has been in the unit for 8 yrs and for the past 5 yrs has always been late on her rent and water bill. I have always worked w/ her and based on your feedback and advice I finally said enough is enough and put my foot down. She always had an excuse and always paid the rent in parts and it wasn't paid until around the 25th of each month which was unreal. So, I gave her a 10 day notice to pay or quit and guess what by day 7 she paid all the past due rent and the water bill (coughed up over 1000 bucks) and in a few days here comes Oct rent so I was like this is all going to reset and start again and I'm going to have to give her another 10 day notice but I was so surprised that by the 3rd she was paid in FULL. wow. I should have done this a long time ago. She hasn't spoken to me yet or messaged me since the notice which she always does so I'm assuming she's mad at me (like I did something wrong right! ) but wow in a matter of 2 wks she coughed up 2500.00!!!!!
