State Specific Question About: PENNSYLVANIA (PA)
Hey fellow PA landlords - the "What would you do??" post from yesterday got me to thinking. Does anyone in PA with experience before district justices have a feeling for just what is thought of as a fair late fee?
I think that mine needs to change, and need some guidance. Thanks! --71.175.xxx.xx |

Had a magistrate tell us 10% at our association meeting. I do 10%. That's even across the board. $25 is a lot for a person paying $350 a month for a studio and nothing for someone paying $1,500 a month for a full house. --174.201.xx.xx |

I charge $ 50.00 on the 6th day and $ 5 a day thereafter. I had to evict someone who owed rent and these charges and wasn't challenged about it. --64.121.xxx.xx |

I was in court just yesterday......
Tenant got busted for distribution of a control substance and plead guilty. So I went over to do the knock and talk two weeks ago. As soon I asked about it....tenant refused to pay rent. I filed had the hearing yesterday.
It made for a very easy court case. Non-payment by the BF, GF is in jail
Rent monthly is $830 and I was granted the $60 late fee. All I had too do was explain is there were six days after the due date to the time that I gave out the five day pay or quit.
Normally my tenants just mail in rent and it comes in on or about the the due date, but since they closed the mail sorting facility in Erie.....it has been taking about three extra days to get mail. I will only wait a total of 6 days for the check in the mail. --72.23.xxx.xxx |
