By John Nuzzolese Have you ever been beaten by a tenant on the rent? Most of us have and unfortunately, it is one of the costs of doing business as a landlord. On the brighter side, remedies are available for many. If you have documented your tenancy with the proper paperwork including a rental application, lease agreement, late notices, etc., you may have a chance of collecting. Credit bureau reporting is an option in which many modern landlords are beginning to participate. The LPA recommends tenant and credit reporting to our members.As landlords ourselves, we do not believe tenants should get away "Scott Free" for leaving their landlord with a mess of unpaid rent, damages and other unpaid responsibilities.

But if you insist, send a lease with the increase. If they wont sign, serve a 30 day notice. Dear Mr. Reno: A: If you think you can tell your tenant he can't have a girlfriend, you've got a lot to learn. Sometimes you can get them on a lease violation, but it's problematic, Trust me.
