Handle a disputed rent payment without losing the record
Disputes are rare but expensive when they happen, and they are almost always won or lost on documentation. Because the payment, the lease that obligated it, and the messages around it live in one system, the evidence is already assembled.
What you have on hand
- The full transaction record — amount, method, date, and status
- The executed lease establishing the obligation
- Communication history with the tenant
- Ledger entries showing how the payment was applied
- Records retained so a later dispute does not find an empty file
Frequently asked questions
What happens if a tenant disputes a payment?
The transaction, the lease, the ledger entry, and the related communications remain available as a connected record, which is what you need to respond to a dispute or chargeback.
