Dear [Tenant's Name]:

This is a friendly reminder that your rent is due.

I wish to inform you that I have not received your rent for the month of ____________, 2012. I trust that this is merely an oversight on your part since this is the first time it happened. If you have mailed your payment, please disregard this notice otherwise, please do so immediately.

If for some reasons you will be unable to pay, please call me right away to discuss terms that will work for both of us. You can reach me from _____ a.m. to ____ p.m. by calling _____________.

Thank you for your time and prompt attention to this matter.
