I started with a gentle reminder that the late fees had accrued and, per our lease were now considered rent, and that took care of it this time around at least...  

Please be gentle if this is a stupid question.

Nickle and dime her on the deposit.Lastly, document everything day-to-day just in case court proceedings come into the picture.Be firm, yet gentle.

And the salesman read my thoughts through my eyes and gently reminded me that this piece of functional art represented 18 months of a man's life, hand tying every knot. 

(Turbo Tenant) I truly feel you guys gently helped me unwind my ball of nerves and with your note above, your company has obviously hired some awesome employees. - I barely heard from the previous company this morning and they didn't even address my woes, completely numb.  

Most of the dings and scratches buff out.

Don't worry, I'll be gentle!  

That being said, if your tenant doesn't move out when the due date comes, just gently inform them that you will file and eviction that day.

You have to be able to gently but firmly get them to face the reality of what they truly stand to lose, solve their immediate problem of where they will live and not make them feel like you are taking advantage of their situation.

This is the first time I have ever done something like this, so please be gentle....
