Yeah I’m surprised they allow the em to pay rent via credit card. Since that reduces the amount the landlord gets, it seems fair that it would charge a fee to cover that difference.
I wonder if the fee goes away if a checking account is used.
My man, the amount the landlord is charging rent is entirely arbitrary outside of being ‘as high as they can get away with’. Don’t make excuses for a landlord swindling you out of your money by making that amount seem more palatable by shuffling bits of it behind “fees.”
Almost $1700 a month in base rent, the landlord can pay the damn fee for their own convenience in not having to cash a check.

While I agree on rent being too damn high, I think I draw the line as follows.
If you agreed to pay X and there are mandatory fees on top of that, that’s bullshit that should be illegal.
If you agreed to pay X and you want to use a method of payment that will make the other party receive less than X… that’s on you.
It feels a lot like… if someone agrees to pay me X and decides to pay me less than X… that’s some bullshit.
