Rent is due on the first business day of each month and considered late after the third business day at 11:59 PM.
If a tenant pays rent late (after the third of the month), the property manager takes the first step of the eviction process, namely, to send a 3-Day Notice to vacate. Typically, the tenant contacts us and the rent is paid at this point.
If rent is not paid by the tenant following receipt of the 3-Day Notice, Davis Property Management files an eviction notice with the Justice of the Peace precinct and a hearing is set within ten to fourteen days. In most cases, we handle the eviction without hiring an attorney. As the property owner, you are initially charged for the filing fees, which are later charged to the tenant.
