I have not been giving out rental receipts. What should I do now?

Oscar Cortez

Hi all. I started midterm renting rooms in January on Furnished Finder. Up until recently did I discover that I needed to be giving out rental receipts as a business would. I currently have 2 tenants that are coming into their 2nd month of rent with me. I will be giving them receipts I found from law depot and moving forward. 

However, is it too late to give them a receipt for first months rent?

what about security deposit?

Should I reach out to the 2 previous tenants and offer them their receipts for the months they were here?

Thank you all for your help

I understand oversights happen. Boost professionalism by providing receipts for current and future rent to show transparency. While security deposit receipts might not be mandatory, they're fair. Offering past tenants receipts reflects your commitment to proper record-keeping.
