NORFOLK, Va - Here on the sixth day of the month, you may receive a notice from your landlord if you're behind on rent.
Rent is generally due within five days from the start of the month. A new regulation now requires your landlord to give you a 14-day notice, an increase from five days.
"If you receive one of these notices, don't freak out. It's required by state law that we send a notice of nonpayment of rent," said Patrick McCloud, the CEO of the Virginia Apartment Management Association.
