    No, its isn't unfair if that is in the rental contract that was signed. The people who signed it know what days their funds come in, and should have asked for the rent to be due on that day, or not signed the contract.

    Well there is a difference between wrong and illegal. If the lease specifies when the rent is due and what the late charges are, then its legal. If the tenant signed that lease, then they have no complaint.

    If, however, they became disabled after they signed the lease, then it would seem a reasonable accommodation (that might even be covered under the ADA).

    Have you spoken to the landlord? Tried to renegotiate?
