Your state statute may or may not limit the amount a landlord can charge for a late fee. However, most likely this is left up to the contract or lease agreement you signed with the landlord. I suggest reading over your lease agreement to see exactly what it says about late fees and how they are charged. |

That seems way too high… But remember that most states regulate rentals by the contract you signed with your landlord. If you signed a lease with the fee explained within the lease terms, then it is legal. This is why it is important to read over your lease before signing it. |

I don’t know where you live but in mass you are not late and can not be charged until you are 14 days late |
