Tenant Rent Payment Dispute

Summary

In situations where tenants pay rent to a preferred administrator among multiple administrators, its crucial to have a clear designation for rent collection. Without a rental agreement, administrators should decide and inform tenants in writing. If tenants disobey, issue a formal notice and consider legal action. If they remain adamant, mediation or a court order may be necessary. Consult a local attorney for guidance on drafting notices or pursuing legal action.

Out of * administrators, who will the tenants pay rent to
Hi there! In the case of having multiple administrators, tenants should generally pay rent to the administrator designated by the group or the one specified in the rental agreement. If there's no clear designation, the group of administrators should formally decide and inform the tenants.
Is there a rental agreement or any documentation that specifies who the tenants should pay?
There is no rental agreement
In the absence of a rental agreement, it's important for the group of administrators to come together and formally decide who among them will be responsible for collecting the rent. Once decided, they should communicate this decision in writing to the tenants to avoid any confusion.
