Re: When is the rent officially late with grace period

I have a 5 day grace period.
The lease clearly states that the rent is due on the first...I will not charge a late fee ....but I will post a quit or pay on the second. I have a manager who does the work to prepare the "q or p" and his time is billed. The lease makes it clear that the cost of posting legal notices due to late rent will be added to the rent due.
It isn't free to not pay on time. It costs $25. For me to have a "q or p" posted...that is added to the rent owed. What that does do is prepare the way for me to file eviction papers on the morning of the 6th. If I wait until the 6th (5 day grace period) then I cannot file before the 10th. That can make the difference between getting the eviction before the 1st of the new month..or having it drag into a second month.
