Hi Jody, I have accepted personal checks from tenants for years and never had a problem.
I am with Jennifer Mackay and Sybil Campbell we accept personal checks and have never had a problem with one.
This is a good article but I personally do not agree with #1 i.e. never accept cash or personal checks. I have tried it and most of the times , it is successful.
#1 is kind of my go to - we do not accept cash but we do accept personal checks
