Are you talking about me wanting a late fee?
I am just stating his landlord should like it when he gets paid more.
Maybe the OP does not pay a late fee if he is late.
Now I will ramble on about me collecting a late fee.
First time and second time the renter is late I collect the late fee.
UNLESS there is a legit reason.
I have had some change banks and the money had a 3 day hold and caused them to be late.
I get that and I did not charge them a late fee.
There have been dozens of times a renter had a good reason and if they contact me before rent is due and tell me the reason I do not charge a late fee.
Now the first 2 times as a new renter I charge it just to let them realize this 10% thing can and will happen so get your ducks in a row.
Current renter in Moore has been taking care of his dying mother and is very short on funds.
I have not charged him a late fee because of that.
I know it is hard and his funds are all messed up and must wait until his check on the 15th comes in.
Came across different. My bad.
Needless to say I have landlords like ole grizz and not a huge fan of landlords right now. Never had one that was worth a ****.
