He had arrived the week before, was living in a hotel, and wanted to get into a place asap before wife and child arrived.

When she arrived there was a box of 8 truffles at her position at the table. 

When do you arrive?

It’s the tenant’s responsibility to get it to you before the due date and if it doesn’t arrive before that date, then you need to enforce your late fees (that may be the only thing that motivates them because clearly your text/email reminders to them are not working with this tenant). 

Danyelle has been very responsive, and it has been a pleasure working with her so far.I am still waiting for my new SS card to arrive in the mail, this could take another week.

Your expense ratio will be higher than a MH park depending on how many transient spaces you still have and the hours of operation you keep for your onsite staff to accommodate new arrivals. 

I haven't done a deal yet but have began doing some marketing and have a game plan for when I arrive at my new destination. 

Just let them know that it is their responsibility to have their rent sent or left where you desire and make it clear there will be a $100 additional rent if it does not arrive by the due date. 

I am trying to figure out the best way for tenants that do not have a job where we can collect the rent via direct deposit and/or do not have a bank account pay their rent with a money order. i do not like when they mail the money orders because it never seems to arrive on time.

Well said Account Closed but the ferry situation is no joke, especially during rush hour with a car you must arrive early, traffic to get to the ferry is nuts too.
