That's really interesting and not sure if it's true but okay lol.
I emailed all renters on the 1st reminding them that rent is due on the 1st and that if not received by the 7th then they get a late fee. They rent on Thursday nights. So their check would have been at the desk on Friday. It's interesting that it wasn't but now on the last day of the grace period they call and say they DID leave it, but came back and picked it up, and are going to bring it again later... suuuuure friends. But I'll just accept that this time 🙃
