Clear payment agreements prevent problems. Here's how to arrange it best.
How to arrange rent
- Monthly payment: The tenant pays rent every month, preferably via automatic bank transfer
- Payment date: Agree on a fixed payment date (e.g., the 1st of the month) and record it in the contract
- Inclusive or exclusive: Be clear about what's included in the rent (gas, water, electricity, internet)
Rent not received?
If the rent doesn't come through:
- Contact your tenant first, since there's often a simple explanation
- Send a written reminder if payment is still missing
- Can't resolve it? Contact Hospi Housing for advice
Tip: keep records
Save all payment receipts and correspondence about payments. This matters if any disputes ever arise.
