Even if the tenant walks in on the second day of the month and tells me they can't pay until the 13th, I remind them they will still be charged late fees and I will still start the eviction process on the 11th.My standards are in writing and equally applied on every tenant, every time.

I walked about 15 to 20 duplex/triplex's and put offers in on most of them (My Agent is the BEST) Over the course of 8 months.... before I purchased one!!    

The development is expected to bring thousands of permanent jobs and promote sustainability, including eco-friendly features like walking paths and tree plantings.
