Late Notice, Landlord to TenantReview List
This review list is provided to inform you about this document and assist you in its preparation. Solvent landlords pursue late rent checks promptly and vigorously. They have learned that letting the rent slide for only a few days gets the tenant further and further behind and therefore makes catching up an even greater problem for them.
You are well advised to be guided by this practice. Slippage in payment dates, in my experience, leads to much larger problems, as a rule. So, be sure to get this letter out promptly. Be sure to follow up.
1. Keep a record in the Tenants file. This is not part of a formal eviction process. However, it is a sign of your good faith of “trying†to “work†with the Tenant and can be a very helpful thing in any later eviction process taken.
2. Be sure to treat all Tenants evenhandedly in this regards so you do not wind up playing favoritesand having that used against you in Court or by rumor with other Tenants.

First, serve a Notice to Quit.
What is penalty for not paying rent in MA?
There's no such thing as a penalty. If a tenant fails to pay rent, the landlord can serve a Notice to Quit on the day after the rent is due. On the fifteenth day, if the tenant has not paid, the landlord can have a Summons and Complaint served by a constable, which sets up a court date about three weeks later. If the tenant has gotten a Notice to Quit for nonpayment in the previous 12 months, he cannot cure the notice, and the landlord can have a Summons served 15 days after that second notice, regardless of whether the tenant ever paid. If you are referring to a late fee, Massachusetts law only allows a late fee after 30 days. There is no limit on the late fee (except common sense), but it must be articulated in a written rental agreement.
Can a landlord give a tenant 14 days to move when they have a signed lease?
Normally the landlord must give at least a 30-day notice before the expiration of the lease that he will not renew it, so the tenant must leave.
