The short answer
1. Enter rent billed for the same reporting period.
Rent collection rate is rent collected divided by adjusted rent due, where adjusted due is rent billed minus approved credits. This calculator reports that period arithmetic from your inputs; it does not determine delinquency status, notices, fees, or payment application rules.

Define the denominator before using a collection rate

Collection rate divides rent collected by rent due for the same property scope and period. Keep scheduled charges, credits, vacancy, timing, and returned payments visible so a percentage does not collapse different causes into one label.
A zero amount due has no meaningful percentage denominator. The tool should be used to identify a reconciliation question, not to score a tenant or trigger collection action.

Calculation lens

Collection rate = rent collected ÷ rent due × 100
The result is a descriptive percentage for the entered period and amounts.

Read the number in context

Monthly portfolio example
$9,600 collected against $10,000 due is 96%. Reconcile the $400 difference before calling it delinquency.
Does not classify balances, forecast collections, or determine notices, fees, or legal remedies.
Interpretation example
A 96% rate may reflect one payment in transit, a credit, vacancy, or an unpaid balance; the ledger decides which explanation is true.
Questions landlords ask

Questions about this tool and its limits.

Should credits reduce rent due?

Use credits you have already approved and want reflected in the period’s calculation.

Does an open balance mean I can send a notice?

Not necessarily. Notice, fee, and collection requirements depend on the lease and local law.

Before you act

Use the same period and portfolio scope.
Reconcile returns, credits, and timing.
Review open balances in the ledger.

Built by a landlord who's done every one of these jobs by hand.
Aptoria was built by an owner-operator managing a Brooklyn portfolio — the 11pm calls, the awkward rent texts, the April receipt-pile — not by a software team guessing at the problem.
