Reminder to Pay Rent on Time Letter – Single Tenant

This Reminder to Pay Rent on Time Letter - Single Tenant can be used when a tenant has been late in paying their rent. 

What Is This Template?

This Reminder to Pay Rent on Time letter is a professionally drafted template that landlords can use when a single tenant has paid their rent late. It provides a clear and polite reminder of the tenant's obligation to pay rent in accordance with the terms of the tenancy agreement. 

This letter is intended as an early intervention tool to address late rent payments before arrears escalate. 

Why Do Landlords Need This Letter?

Late payment of rent is a serious issue and addressing this promptly helps landlords:

• Encourage timely future rent payments 
• Resolve issues without escalating the matter
• Create a clear written record should further action be required

The landlord should keep a copy of the letter on the tenant’s file. This will be particularly important if the tenant continues to pay late or fails to pay at all as the landlord will need to enter into further correspondence and may need to take legal action against the tenant.

This version of the template letter is suitable where there is a single tenant named on the tenancy agreement. Where the tenancy is held by more than one tenant, landlords should use the First Rent Arrears Letter – Joint Tenants. 

Optional phrases / clauses are enclosed in square brackets. These should be read carefully and selected so as to be compatible with one another. Unused options should be removed from the document.

This Reminder to Pay Rent on Time Letter - Single Tenant is in open format. Either enter the requisite details in the highlighted fields or adjust the wording to suit your purposes.
