No, you as tenants are renting a residence as a whole, not per bedroom. All tenants are jointly and severely liable for paying the rent and adhering to the terms of the agreement.

Monday. If the 1st hits on a holiday it will be drafted the day after. To ensure your rent goes through the day it is due we recommend you have ALL of your money in your account at least 2 business days prior to day money will be taken out of account. It usually takes a few days for the bank to process it.
We will let you know two or three days after the 1st if the payment did not go through and was not processed
Answer:
RPH will draft the monthly rent from ONE BANK ACCOUNT per household. Tenants may use one personal account for the entire house or set up a joint bank account.
Personal account: The account holder will have everyone deposit the rent into his/her account.
Joint account: All parties have access to the account and may make deposits anytime.
RPH recommends the joint bank account option. It allows everyone to access the account when NSF notices are received.
Answer:
Yes, there is a $50 fee every time the rent is drafted and it comes back as an NSF. The fee and rent that was due on the 1st will be drafted 2 days after tenants are notified of the NSF. This gives you time to make any deposits or transfers necessary.
When there’s a NSF, your bank may also have additional charges. Charges may vary depending on the bank (check with your bank on their policies).
Answers:

Answers:
These breakers are per code and are installed in all living areas of the home such as the bedrooms and living rooms. ARC Fault Breakers are designed to detect an arch which is essentially an electric leak caused when a hot wire touches a neutral or ground wire. These are susceptible to “nuisance tripping” due to the items that are plugged into that circuit. 9 out of 10 times if someone is getting a reoccurring breaker trip it is going to be caused by something plugged into a hot circuit and going through the process of elimination of unplugging an item to see if that circuit trips again is necessary to find the culprit. Also, the item causing the breaking to trip does not have to be on. if you go through the process of elimination and/or reset the breaker and still cannot find the problem, then please contact our office or message us on tenant cloud.
