Please use this thread going forward: No rent's payment. | EA Forums - 11938320
Tried this in two saves (an older one and a new one).
Tried both scenarios of landlord living in Residential and landlord living in Residential Rental with tenants.
In both cases I had a rent payout on Wednesday at 5AM, regardless of tenancy length. In one save I had one tenant with a 2-day tenancy renewed continuously.
The rent payment isn't connected to the tenancy period (and I had missing rent payments when I evicted tenants with shorter tenancies).
On top of that the rent payments only began after the landlord household got their first regular bill (in the new save).
New saves start on Sundays, no bills the first Monday. The first bill comes on the second Monday and after that I got the rent payout on Wednesday at 5 AM.
So, in a new save, you might get your rent payout a week and a half after starting the save. Then weekly after that.
The rent value itself seemed off (miscalculated). In one instance it seemed that tenants with shorter tenancies that leave before payment day may not pay at all. But I don't have the patience to test for more weeks in-game.
I'm curious if the payment eventually comes for everyone on Wednesday if they keep a renter on or if it depends on where the landlord is at the time (residential lot or not) or other factors.
You are completely right. Received rent two Wednesdays in a row. I don't know why the game says daily rent if you only receive it weekly.
Same happened to me! I don't understand why it says that either, but just now I got paid two weeks in a row
