BENNETT PROPERTY MANAGEMENT major f**king ripoff phoenix, Arizona

When a tenant signs their lease, they are notified, in writing, what the rental due date is and what the deadline is to pay their rent without late fees.  By signing the lease, the tenant agrees to these terms.  It also clearly states in the lease that the deadlines are the same each month, regardless of weekends or holidays.  If a tenant wants to mail their rent via the US mail, they need to make the proper timing allowance, so that the rent will not arrive after the deadline date (which is the case in this complaint).

Rent can be paid via the US mail, online, or in person at our office.  We also have a drop box that accepts rent 24/7 at our office.

This tenant mailed his rent, which arrived after the rental acceptance deadline.  He is upset because we enforced the terms of the lease, which stated that he owed a late fee for late payment, and that he had to provide us with a cashier's check or money order, because the deadline for the acceptance of a personal check had also passed.

We represent the Owner of the property, and it is our obligation to ensure that the rent is collected and that the funds are good when collected (thus money order or cashier's check).  Also, we are required to treat everyone equally.  Each tenant, by signing their lease agreement, agrees to the term of the lease.  It is our obligation to enforce the terms of the lease.
