Grand Junction CO house rentals : Paying rent

Grand Junction CO house rentals technically require existing tenants to pay rents on the first of every month. Technically speaking, the payments made from second of each month are considered as late payments. In fact; many times in cases where the rent payments have not been made for months and months; the evictions can be begun on the second.

There are the companies that have fixed charges for late rent payments. For example; if this amount stands at $75, then the amount must be paid by renters until the fourth/fifth of the month. Many property management companies and managers accept the late fees in the form of cashier checks or money order. Personal checks are generally not accepted for these payments.

The rental agreements that are signed by tenants at the time of moving in also have these charges clearly indicated. These include: late fees, utility charges, fines and repair bills. These are also treated as rent if they have gone unpaid. This can be the basis of eviction if the occupant has not paid these amounts.

Additionally, most rental housing companies accept personal checks at the time of rent payments but not at the time of application and moving-in. Sometimes, checks are also returned due to lack of funds or insufficient funds. These accounts are flagged and can also be subjected to additional fees.

Most offices ask renters to drop the payments at their office or deliver them through mail. Many companies are now making use of property management software tools to facilitate online rent payments.
