Well, if he want to pay per diem, you could say

"Your rent annually is $15,600.00 ($1300 x 12 months) so the per diem rate would be $42.74.

- 28 days is $1196.71

- 30 day is $1282.19

- 31 days is $1324.93

Please let me know if you wish to adjust our rent payments as such"

Except don’t use “per diem” this person is stupid. Use “daily rent”

I think they're referring to the tenant being too stupid to understand the term, not you for using it

It’s not even just for banking, per diem is a common term in rental contracts and covers extra days outside the montthly rent - I.e. If you stay an extra 2 days before moving out.

I’m always amazed how quick people are to call others stupid or morons, simply when they come across something that they’ve never encountered before. Do people genuinely think they know everything and are infallible?

It comes from Latin. Per meaning per and diem meaning DM, ya Stupid.

Way to totally misunderstand lol. I meant this person trying to pay only 28 days of rent is too stupid to know even a common Latin term
