Most people here know that im cynical and your post has me thinking along those lines again. When it comes to late rent and tenants telling me theyre leaving, yeah, i tend not to believe them. Two things can happen - 1) he wont leave - why should he, when he can string you along, saying manana manana ill pay you the rent and never does, in the meantime youve wasted a LOT of time. Or 2) youll never see a dime cuz he needs that unemployment check for moving expenses. Regardless of a promise to pay, he has no job and soon, will have no place to stay. The sooner you put off creating and posting the 3 day pay or quit, the better off youll be. Get a tenant in there that CAN pay the rent and not someone that is sliding down a slippery slope. Today is the 11th - if you posted the notice today, he has to respond by Friday. If he does pay, great, rescind the notice. If he doesnt, youre at the courthouse on the 18th, the day after he said he was leaving and the day after he gets his unemployment check.

Melanie is right. He won't pay you, because why would he? He is moving out anyway. Eventually. AND he will need the money for his moving costs. Post notice TODAY. Today. Seriously. Do it. Make him aware of what will happen to his credit if he doesn't pay up. chances are he has already screwed up his credit, and doesn't care, but let him know anyway.
