Rent Invoice Template

A rent invoice template gives landlords a tidy way to bill tenants for each rental period. It shows the property and unit, the period covered, the rent and any agreed extras, with the due date and late fee terms from the lease. Send one before rent is due, then give a receipt once it's paid.

Rent, billed as clearly as the lease reads.

What a rent invoice should include

  • Property address and unit

    Name the rental property and the unit, especially if you manage more than one. It ties the invoice to the right lease.

  • The rental period

    State the period the rent covers, such as November 1 to 30. For a partial month, show the prorated dates.

  • Rent and agreed extras

    List rent on its own line, then parking, pet rent or storage separately, each as the lease sets it out.

  • Utility charges you bill back

    If the lease makes the tenant responsible for a utility you pay, show the usage period and amount, and keep the bill on file.

  • Due date and late fee terms

    Repeat the due date and any late fee exactly as the lease states. Late fees must follow the lease, and some states limit them.

  • How to pay

    List the methods you accept, such as bank transfer, check or a payment link, and who checks should be made out to.

Tips for landlords and property managers.

  • Send invoices on a fixed day

    Issue the rent invoice on the same day each month, a week or two before rent is due. Tenants come to expect it and can plan around it.

  • Give a receipt for every payment

    A receipt confirms the amount, date and method of payment. Some states require one in certain cases, such as rent paid in cash, so check your local rules.

  • Keep the security deposit apart

    Don't apply the security deposit to rent unless the lease and local law allow it. Many states set rules for how deposits are held and returned.

Rent invoices, answered.

Is a rent invoice the same as a rent receipt?

No. A rent invoice asks for payment before it's due, while a rent receipt confirms a payment you've received. Make rent receipts with the free receipt generator.

Can I send rent invoices automatically each month?

Yes, with Pro. Recurring invoices go out on the schedule you set, so each month's rent invoice is sent without rebuilding it.

How do I bill a partial month?

A common method is to divide the monthly rent by the days in that month and multiply by the days the tenant occupies the unit. Show the dates on the line, and if your lease sets a different method, follow the lease.

Do I charge tax on rent?

Tax rules for rent vary by state and by type of rental, such as long-term homes, short-term stays and commercial space. Check with your state or an accountant before adding a tax line.

What should I do when rent is late?

Apply the late fee your lease sets, within your state's limits, and send an updated invoice showing the fee and the new balance. Keep a copy of every notice you send.

Is this template free to use?

Yes. Open it in the invoice generator, replace the sample details with your own and download a PDF. No sign-up, no watermark.

Can I add my own logo and colours?

Yes. Upload your logo, choose a design and pick an accent colour, or enter your own hex value. 3 designs are free; Pro unlocks all 48.
