There has been an increasing number of restrictions put on unannounced entries in the past few years. Do not trespass unlawfully. Enter to make emergency repairs if you have to, otherwise wait until you get approval from the tenant for all other work. Don't abuse your privilege, you could end up with a legal battle. Setting the Rental Amount Your main consideration for determining the rental amount is based on rents of comparable rental units in the area.
Common sense dictates that similar units rent for similar amounts.
Make sure your tenants know exactly when the rent is due. If you extend a grace period, make sure the tenants do not exceed that date for payment. Make it clear that you expect prompt payment. Even though you carefully selected your tenant from all the other applicants, things can go wrong. Job loss, illness, divorce, all kinds of things can hinder someone's ability to make timely rental payments.
