  • rent and separate fees
  • amount and payment method
  • received date, recipient, and remaining balance

Complete it cleanly

Use the tenant name, property address, rent period, amount, payment method, date received, and person receiving it. Keep late fees, utilities, deposits, and remaining balances on separate lines.

When this document is the right choice

Use this receipt to give the customer a clear record after payment. A receipt confirms money already received. An invoice requests payment, so do not label an unpaid balance as a receipt or mark it paid before funds clear.
