Questions, answered.

How do I write a late rent notice?

Name the tenant, the unit, the rent and the date it was due, say how late it is, and say how to pay. Start friendly, since most late rent is an oversight, and get more formal only if it stays unpaid. Keep a copy of every notice. The writer above does exactly that, in three steps, from what you type.

Can I charge a late fee on rent?

Only what your lease sets and your local rules allow; many states and cities limit late fees or require a grace period first. Put the fee in the form exactly as your lease states it and the formal and final notices will mention it. Leave it empty and no notice invents one.

Is a late rent notice the same as a pay or quit notice?

No. A late rent notice is a reminder and a written record that rent is late. A “pay or quit” notice is a formal legal step whose wording, delivery and timing are set by your state or city, so this writer doesn’t write one. If it comes to that, check your local rules first.

Is it free, and do you keep what I type?

Free, no sign-up, no card; each person can write a handful a day so it stays free for everyone. The details go to the writer once, come back as three notices, and are not stored or logged.
