I live next to my cousin, but they constantly delay paying the rent. Even though I have to remind them a couple of times, they just say, ‘I’ll send it later.’ I know their financial situation isn’t bad, but they don’t seem to care much. How can I resolve this situation? Do you think I should be this patient?
It seems strange to me to ask for rent from your own house.
Did you say side by side here, the same house or different houses? Was the rent going directly into your account?
@kahvebitmeden we are in different houses, the rent is the rent he pays for my house. It’s in my name because.
So you’re saying their financial situation isn’t bad, but you can’t know that. Maybe they have a debt they don’t want to announce? I think you should have talked to them directly.
we had a similar situation, my mom put up with it for a while but ultimately we couldn’t collect the rent. Money issues with family always get tangled.
If you don’t have a contract stating that you’ve legally rented out the house, it would be good to send a direct warning message and create written evidence. In such cases, a clear plan for the future is needed.
Is there nothing left to be patient about?
