Hiiii please help me answer my question

I got charge late fee for my rent I send each payment through mail usually arrives after 3 days. I send the check on feb 28 but the management property didn’t receive it until March 6. My rent is due the 1st day of evrry month and the lease I signed says that after the 5 day is consider late. Do I still have to pay late fee???

Usually there are specific rules about paying rent by mail. Like if I remember correctly, my lease said that if paying by mail, the post mark has to be the date that the rent is due. You should look at your lease

Considering there’s only 28 days in February and mail isn’t delivered on Sundays I would say yes you still have to pay late fee since it got there late.
