Re: tenant, landlord
Calling you before the mail has been delivered on the 1st sounds unreasonable to me. Actually calling before the close of business the first BUSINESS day of the month is unreasonable. That said unless you have been late with the rent more than once is obnoxious behavior. It might be argued that it violates your right to quiet enjoyment.
The lease that is in force is the one you signed. That's the only one he can use against you in court.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
