What happens if my renter stops paying during the lease?

Here's what we recommend doing if your renter stops paying rent during their lease.

Lite listings

Try getting in touch right away to see if there's a reasonable explanation. Relist your listing so that you can start the process of replacing your non-paying tenant. You may need to start the eviction process yourself.

Leaseholder and Landlord listings

If you're on the Leaseholder or Landlord plan, your incoming rent payments will be automated, tenants will be reminded with increasing frequency and the formal eviction process will be started on your behalf if they don't respond.

Questions? Contact Caretaker Support to let us know that you're running into trouble with your tenant.
