Financial Risks Are Cancelled
Written by daniboy on 31 August 2010 – 12:33 am -No matter who is putting the flat on lease, they do it for the same reason – everyone wants to get a stable additional income. And it is quite clear as at present day not stable economic situation it is a great advantage to have an extra apartment which can give a stable additional “aid”. Sometimes there situations when a flat is the only source of income. For such people this money is really of great value. Think of pensioners. These are people who completely rely on such income as the money that get from the government is really small. Anyway, no matter what category of people you take it is never pleasant to have a financial failure and loss. Unfortunately with the rented apartments this problem is quite often. For those who want either to avoid or prevent financial risks it is better to know the rules of safe behavior with their tenants.
The most common problem is the payment delay. If it happens once or twice and to top it all your tenants informed you in advance and fixed the exact time when they will be ready to pay the rent, it is no problem. However, in case you understand that non-payment is becoming systematic and your tenants do not bother to take any measure to prevent it, it is high time you took the measure to stop it. First you have to talk to them and explain impossibility of untimely payment. The next step is different kinds of warnings. A constant non-payment and the rejection to leave the apartment lead to the tenants’ eviction. Here you have to realize that it is better to formalize all details of your relations in advance and conclude a contract before your tenants get it. Otherwise a landlord will have to spend plenty of time to protect themselves against unfair tenants. Make sure you do everything correct beforehand.
Another problem landlords might face is the unpaid bills that your tenants leave after their contract terminates. If the tenants can use the possibility to make international or at least intercity calls the bills can be huge. In case after a month or two you see that there is a risk of having non-paid bills, take some measures. The most radical way is to deprive the tenants of making the call. You have to ask the corresponding services to provide your apartment with this service.
Another risk landlords may face is leaving the rented apartment without payment. In case a landlord has passport details of the tenants it will be easier to get the money. Otherwise it may be problematic. When you let the tenants in ask for the prepayment. In case the tenants refuse to do it is better to stop the relations with such people. There is a common practice of taking money for the last month of residing. In this case you are sure to have the money even if your tenants failed to pay for the last month.
Generally, whatever you do in terms of the lease, you have to formalize everything and do everything on time.
Today many people who hold additional appartment try to make money with that. But often tenants refuse to pay their rent payments, and New York is not an exception here. Those landlords who are facing this kind of trouble may be interested in New York tenant landlord law. Cases can be different, and one is able to overcome some of them just possessing the proper landlord attorney New York information.

Sub-rent Is Cancelled!
Written by daniboy on 31 August 2010 – 12:32 am -The level of unemployment is constantly growing. More and more people are looking for some kind of work to survive at the present day difficult economic situation in the world. It is a common practice that many people come to the capitals in search of some work. Of course, these people don’t have a place for living in unknown places, so there they have to rent either a flat or a room in the flat. There is another party on the opposite side – the landlords. They try to get as much money as they can foe their property, though sometimes the apartment they put on lease don’t correspond the rent payment they ask for. So, there is one recommendation to the landlords: please, look critically at the condition of the apartment you are going to put on lease and balance the price and quality you offer.
Unfortunately, landlords often exaggerate the level of their services, and as the result they provoke fraud themselves. People who want to rent the flat cannot afford paying so much money and they invent some ways of cheating their landlords.
One of the most spread ways of cheating the landlords is a sub-rent. Our tenants can find other people who want to reside somewhere and let them in for the rent price that is higher than they pay to you. They can perfectly pay their cheaper apartment and live happily for the difference between what they receive and what they pay to a landlord.
Or there can be another way of sub-rent. Your tenants live in your apartments; however there live some other people at the same time. Your apartment looks look a communal flat with a huge amount of people living in it. In this way every one of those living in your apartment is at the beneficial position: they have the place to live and pay less that they would pay if they rented the apartment on their own. Definitely landlords cannot be satisfied with such situation. They cannot even dream about the order and cleanliness in their apartments. There is even nothing to say about the financial loss they have to bear.
This problem has to be solved somehow. Quite often the process of eviction is problematic and takes some time. Landlords waste their time, money and efforts for getting rid of their unfair tenants. This problem can be prevented if you as a landlord do everything in advance. All troublesome moments and details have to be fixed in the contract. Don’t forget to include the article about the impossibility of sub-rent or the terms and conditions under which it is possible to do. Every professional lawyer can help you to compose such agreement and check if all the items are correctly formulated and included into the document.
Nowadays many people who possess additional flat try to conduct business on that. But often tenants refuse to pay their rent payments, and New York is not an exception here. Those landlords who are coming across this kind of problem might be interested in New York tenant landlord law. Cases may be different, and one is able to overcome some of them just being aware of the proper landlord attorney New York information.
