What part of speech is rented?

The word rented is a verb. It is the past tense of the verb rent.


How long will it take to bring past due rent current making payments every three weeks with a recurring rent fee due the first of each month?

This depends on several factors, foremost, how much the payment will be when it's made. In most states the rent is paid one month in advance, so whenever you pay the rent, it's for the following month, thus your rent will always be correct. Any arrears becomes credited that is granted by your landlord to continue to live in your dwelling. This is why landlords usually cannot evict the tenant for nonpayment of rent if they continue to accept money from the tenant.


When you pay first and last security deposit on a rental home and you stayed there for your first month do you owe after the first 30 days or do you start paying on the second month you just don't get?

Normally you start paying the rent after 30 days. The landlord keeps the "last" months rent as a security deposit until you move out. In some states, you can use this as the final month's rent on your lease (usually the 12th month.) If you renew your lease the landlord will keep it until your final 30 days. . . that's why it's called the "last" month's rent.


It is against the law for the landlord to ask for first and last months rent to someone who is renting?

Massachusetts statutes allow a landlord to collect, at the beginning of a tenancy, the first month's rent, the last month's rent, a security deposit, and a key fee. Most states are similar.


Do you have to pay full rent after you have paid a month and a half rent plus security?

If you mean prior to moving in, No. In order to secure the apartment, you're paying first months rent plus security so there's no need to pay it again. Obviously you'll pay again at the end of the month or start of the first for the second month and so forth until you decide to move out.

If you pay a security deposit and first months rent is the following month going to be in full payment of the rent or prorated?

The first month's rent pays for your first month in the apartment. You will owe the agreed-upon rent to the landlord the second month. I can't see why anything would be prorated--your security deposit cannot be used for rent.

Is rent included in accounts payable?

Yes, it can be, if rent for the following month is not paid prior to the month end. if not, you put it under prepaid rent because you already paid for it.


If you move into an apartment and have paid your first month's rent but are moving out on the first what month do you have to pay a full month's rent?

If your rent is month-to-month, then you probably do not have to pay a full months rent for the month that you're moving out. However, if you're just moving in, having just signed a lease, then you're responsible for the rent during the entire term of the lease or until the landlord rents out the unit, which ever comes first.

When should you pay rent again after paying for the security deposit and first month's rent?

If rent is due on the first of each month and you move in Feb 1 and pay a security deposit and 1st month's rent at that time, your next rent payment is due March 1. You can show up at the leasing office on March 1 and pay. You don't have to be early. If fact, some landlords will give you a certain number of days in a "grace period" where they won't charge you or bother you if you pay within those few days after the due date. Some landlords like for rent to be paid on the first of each month regardless of when you move in. In that case, if you move in in the middle of the month, you will pay pro-rated rent for the partial month and your deposit when you sign the rental agreement, but your first full payment will be due on the 1st of the following month.


If you pay first and last month's rent but you move out before the first 2 months are up can the landlord keep the entire 2nd month's rent?

Yes.


Can your landlord require as a condition of renting an apartment to you a security deposit the first month's rent and the last month's rent in California?

yes


What is the first and last rule?

The first and last rule generally means that when you move-in you are required to pay your first month rent and your last month's rent. A security deposit may also be charged. But oftentimes your landlord will work with you in making security or last month's rent deposits. The difference between last month rent and a security deposit, both which can equal the same amount, is that the last month rent is used to apply to your last month of rent, while the security deposit is refunded to you provided you leave the apartment in good condition minus reasonable wear and tear. Your security deposit is generally not applied towards your last month's rent, especially if you did pay a last month's rent in advance.

What to do if a tenant decides not to move into a property a few hours before they are due to?

If there was a lease, the landlord has an obligation to try to rent it. Until then, the tenant owes the rent. If this was a month-to-month tenancy, the landlord should keep the first month's rent, and return the security deposit and last-month's rent, if any.


If you are on a month to month rental when is a 30 days notice effective is it suppose to be at the beginning of the month when you pay rent?

You can give the landlord notice any time during the rental period, but you must pay full rent during the period covered by the notice. For example, say you have a month-to-month rental agreement, and pay rent on the first day of each month. You could give notice any time during the month (for example, on the tenth). Then, you could leave 30 days later (on the tenth of the following month, or earlier if you chose to). But you would have to pay rent for the first 10 days of the next month whether you stay for those 10 days or move earlier. (Exception: You would not have to pay rent for the entire 10 days if you left earlier, and the landlord rented the unit to another tenant during the 10 days, and the new tenant paid rent for all or part of the 10 days.
