Document background
The Legal Notice For Rent Due is a crucial document in the Philippine landlord-tenant relationship, used when rent payments have become delinquent. This notice must be issued in compliance with the Civil Code of the Philippines and, where applicable, the Rent Control Act of 2009, before pursuing legal remedies for rent collection. The document serves multiple purposes: it formally documents the demand for payment, provides clear evidence of the landlord's attempt to collect, and gives the tenant a final opportunity to settle the outstanding amount before legal proceedings commence. The notice typically includes specific details about the property, lease agreement, outstanding amounts, payment history, and deadline for payment. It's an essential step in the legal process of rent collection and property management in the Philippines, protecting both landlord and tenant rights while ensuring proper documentation of the collection attempt.
