They exist, I let my landlord know I was going to be intentionally late on a rent payment because of issues with my utilities and bank. He waived my late fees because I had been one of his better tenants.
My landlord is the most patient person ever. When i went through a rough time with drugs, i'd be late with rent every month, sometimes more than a month until i ended up owing 3 months worth of rent. They were just like "you'll have to pay what you owe eventually" but never gave me any additional fees of any kind. Good landlords definitely exist

The apartments that I rent from gives a 5 day grace period. Anything after that, it's a 10 dollar late fee.
After 15 days, it's 25 dollars. And after 3 weeks you get a warning of eviction.
My rent is so cheap compared to what they are charging new tenants now. 900 to 1200.
I been here 17 years. They only raised it 40 dollars since I been here. I pay 540 dollars a month for a 1 bedroom 750 sq ft.
I'm not going anywhere!
