In Spain, there is increasing concern <strong>regarding failure to pay the rent<\/strong>. This can be proved if we look at the growing number of <strong>insurance cover<\/strong> which has been signed so as to recover losses, should it be necessary.\u00a0 It is estimated that nowadays <strong>25% of Spanish people who let a house, take out insurance<\/strong> in order to protect themselves against this risk. The figures are considerably higher than in previous years. Hence, we can see <strong>a growing concern regarding late payment<\/strong>. Let us see what we can do about this.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28099\" src=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/01-moroso-1.jpg\" alt=\"My tenant does not pay the rent\" width=\"650\" height=\"615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/01-moroso-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/01-moroso-1-300x284.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/01-moroso-1-528x500.jpg 528w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>NON-PAYMENT INSURANCE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As we have already said, if we take out <strong>non-payment insurance<\/strong>, we will avoid headaches in case the tenant stops paying the rent. <strong>Insurance does not avoid non-payment<\/strong>. However,<strong> it helps to protect the owner\u00b4s income<\/strong> as well as contributing to <strong>having his\/her mind at rest<\/strong>. A non-payment insurance allows the owner to <strong>have the support of an insurance company<\/strong> not only to <strong>collect the rent<\/strong> but also to <strong>have insurance coverage<\/strong> in case of damage to the property and even legal aid in case of eviction. Some insurance companies offer a wider cover range. However, the most demanded cover is the one that guarantees that <strong>the owner will collect the rent<\/strong> and receive economic aid in case of damage to the property. Normally, insurance companies cover <strong>twelve months<\/strong> concerning non-payment of the rent. The owner must <strong>contact the insurance company 45 days after non-payment<\/strong>, so that appropriate procedures can be implemented to make the tenant pay the rent.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/02-moroso-1.jpg\" alt=\"My tenant does not pay the rent\" width=\"650\" height=\"579\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/02-moroso-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/02-moroso-1-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/02-moroso-1-561x500.jpg 561w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>JUDICIAL MEANS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If the owner does not receive the rent of his\/her property, then he\/she can <strong>sue the tenant for failure to pay<\/strong>. This is the procedure that insurance companies follow. However, if the owner has not signed an insurance, then the situation must be solved by a lawyer. The owner can sue the tenant <strong>after one month of non-payment of the rent<\/strong>. Nevertheless, it is advisable <strong>to try to reach a negotiated settlement<\/strong> in order to <strong>avoid going to the courts<\/strong>. We know only too well that <strong>legal proceedings imply expenses, time and they also generally take an unpleasant and tedious path<\/strong>. If you try to solve the problem in a friendly manner, it is important that<strong> it all goes on record<\/strong>. It is recommended to send every document to the tenant<strong> by registered post or by means of a notary<\/strong>. When you notify the tenant, it is customary to <strong>offer a payment deadline<\/strong>. If the payment deadline expires, then you must proceed to a civil lawsuit. If in spite of the lawsuit, the tenant does not pay the rent, then the judge will usually issue eviction. However, each case is different from another. For this reason, in order to avoid an unpleasant situation, <strong>some insurance companies analyze the possible tenant\u00b4s solvency<\/strong> and reliability before advising the owner to sign a contract.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>`My tenant does not pay the rent\u00b4.
