I have been paying my rent each month for the past two years. But I have a running bill of late fees and MCI increases dating back almost ten years. The management company keeps applying my rent payments toward these past fees. Are they allowed to do that? I am usually able to get them to fix it but I am afraid they are attempting to collect these past debts by refusing my rent.
I guess my question is: can the landlord apply rent payments to other monies owed?
