Rent receipts, payment methods & cash in Hawaii

Rent is payable at the time and place the parties agree. Unless agreed otherwise, rent is due at the start of each month (or of a shorter term). Tenants on public assistance can move the due date to within 3 business days after their check is mailed by making a one-time prorated payment. Landlords may not require postdated checks (HRS § 521-44).
