Hello,
I am actually a tenant and I received a letter a few days ago regarding non-payment of rent. It was due by 11/5/2011 and I received the notice on 11/14/2011. It says that if the rent plus late fee is not remitted by 8:30 am Thursday 11/17/2011, they will file for possession of property and start court proceedings. I am disabled and can rely only on a disability income. The money order for November rent was stolen. I spoke to the manager and offered to make a double payment on the next rent date in December. My question is, Can I be forced to leave the premises on Thursday morning if payment is not received or do I wait for an official eviction notice?
