Paying Your Rent

How do I pay my monthly rent?

We make it easy for our tenants to pay their rent through a secure online system at eRentPayment.com for only $3 per transaction.  This service allows you to pay your deposit and rent on or before the 1st of the month to avoid a $50 late fee.  It allows us to refund security deposits to you electronically, and send email reminders. 

 

Pricing: What are the fees for using eRentPayment?

The transaction fee for “one-time payments” or monthly “recurring payments” is $3 per transaction.  There are no monthly, activation, or set-up fees so there is no cost to register with our service. You don’t have to worry about hidden fees as the transaction fee is the only fee charged.  Once your Lease Application has been approved you simply register and create a “profile” on eRentPayment and set up your payment choice.

There are two payment options:

Most tenants select automatic withdrawal to avoid a $50 late fee if rent is not paid on or before the 1st of each month but that is your choice.  ​

  1. Sign up for an automatic withdrawal called a “recurring” monthly payment, so you never have to worry about a late fee if you get busy and forget.

  2. Sign up to manually make a “one-time” payment every month from your cell phone, lap top or computer. 

 

Do I have to create a profile?

Yes, Renters are required to create a profile on the eRentPayment service in order to submit a Rental Payment. Creating a profile allows the Renter to easily submit Rental Payments without having to re-enter their account information for each payment. Creating a profile also allows the Renter to receive payments from their Manager, such as a Security Deposit Refund.
 

What is the Renter Code used for?

When a property is added, a Renter Code will be input by the Property Manager and this will be used by their Renters to add the property to their profile. This ensures the Renters add the correct property to their profile. The Renter Code can contain characters or numbers but it must be unique in the system. The Renter Code can only be obtained from us through erentpayment.

Can a prepaid debit card be used with eRentPayment?

Yes, if the prepaid debit card allows ACH debits the card can be used with our service. The card holder should contact the card issuer to first confirm if they allow ACH debits and if so what routing number and account number should be used with that particular card. We recommend the NetSpend card below for use with our service:

 

Can payments be submitted via telephone?

Yes, we allow Renters to submit payments by telephone. The Renter must already have a profile created on the eRentPayment service to submit payments via telephone. To submit a payment via telephone the Renter will be required to provide the following:

- The Renter Code of the Property they are submitting a payment for.

- Their User Name.

- The last four digits of the Bank Account they are submitting the payment with.

How are transaction fees processed?

For each Renter-to-Property Manager payment submitted on eRentPayment, a $3 transaction fee will be debited from the bank account of the Renter, (Payee). The transaction fee will be a separate transaction from the transaction crediting the payment amount to the Payee.  For example, if a Renter submits a Rent Payment of $950 for the whole apartment or $475 for half the rent, this will be deposited into the Property Manager's account and $3 will be debited from the Renter’s account.   If a Property Manager submits a payment to a Renter, such as for a Security Deposit Refund, the Property Manager's account will be debited the $3 transaction fee.

 

Do you receive a confirmation that a payment has been submitted?

For each payment submitted on eRentPayment, the Payer and Payee will receive a confirmation email with the transaction id if a valid email address has been entered in the profiles for the users.
