Some unfortunate circumstances may cause you to stop paying or delaying your rental payments. This, however, may lead to financial consequences, such as late fees.
You may not have that many options during situations like this, so it’s always better to take preventive measures right from the start. By remembering to pay your rent on or before the deadline, which is often on the first day of the month, you can save yourself from paying extra fees. The good thing is there are simple ways to remind you of the upcoming rental home payments.
Preset the Payments on the First Day of the Month
The easiest way to pay rent on time is to automate it. Setting up a recurring payment enables you to get funds from your bank account and pay the landlord on time each month. This option is ideal if you consistently earn enough money to cover the payments. Our system will allow you to automatically and electronically pay your rent each month–ask you property manager for more details about this free service
Set up an Organized Payment Scheme
Paying the bills is something that almost everyone dislikes. But, if you prioritize and organize all your bills well, you can avoid scrapping for money to pay rent. With an established system, you won’t miss any due. In general, don’t accommodate two big payments within the same cycle.
Use Your Housemates and Alarms for Notifications
Unless you have a special ability, you can’t keep everything in your memory. Many tenants overlook the importance of having others help remind them of the rent. If you’re living with family members or friends, ask them to remind you of the dues from time to time. Likewise, smartphones and other gadgets have alarms you can use. You can even go less-techie with Post-it notes on the refrigerator or bulletin board.
