Frequently asked questions
What is a rent notice?
It's the document sent to the tenant before the payment date to remind them of the amount due (rent, charges, any arrears) and the deadline. It prevents oversights and sets a clear basis if payment is late.
When should I chase a late tenant?
The day after the due date with a polite reminder, then on a fixed schedule announced in advance (for example at D+5 then D+10), with a tone that firms up gradually. Consistency matters more than severity.
How do I prove unpaid rent?
By keeping the lease, the rent notices, the payment history and every dated reminder. Property management software centralises these documents; if legal action is needed, consult a legal professional in your country.
