Hi,


Not only is this harassment but this is also illegal. Not respecting your privacy and your space is Harassment. Coming into your Private apartment without permission is illegal. Advise him that you are installing cameras in your home and if he ever enter again without permission you will take legal action.
 
On the first of the month or any other day, there3 are 24 hours in the day.

IF your lease states the rent has to be paid by a certain time of the day, the landlord should have to wait until at least 12:01 AM of the day following the original due date.

IF you have a grace period, the landlord should also wait until after the last date of that grace period.

To get the matter clarified, review your lease and see exactly what the language of the lease states.

THEN send a "snail mail" or an e-mail to the landlord, together with what your interpretation is for that section pertaining to your rent.

While you're at it, you should also include a list of any other "gray areas" AND a list of everything wrong with the property.

Keep exact copies in your files of everything you send to your landlord.

Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it!

VTY,
