Enforce the terms of your rental contract...In Reply to: Working with Renters.?.? posted by Lughead on January 16, 2004 at 5:50 PM : hello : we have a resident who has given a 30 day notice - now when rent is due, they remitted only a portion of the rent and advised to use the security deposit as the rest : this is of course contrary to the rental agereement : how would people hanlde this? - serve a 3 day notice? then go for a UD? : is this too harsh? - granted it is "by the book" so to speak, but is it in our best inerest? worth the efforts? will it create hostilities? : if they leave with no deposit left and there are damages, we still have small claims ... : what do people think? : thank you Lunk, Yes, I’d serve the 3 Day Notice to Pay or Quit. I’d also remind the non-payers that if they force me to file an unlawful detainer it will show up on their credit report for 7 years. Check out the www.udregistry.com website Most tenants won’t elect to have their credit record stained by violating their agreement with you. They will pay their last month’s rent and leave the security deposit alone. Hope this helps.
