But, it couldn’t hurt to have someone look into it. You can ask the apartments for a break down of the fees and receipts etc. too, just to make sure it is valid. You can probably file w/ RPA and make life a lot easier though.

It looks like you will need to file a complaint– http://www.rentalprotectionagency.com/html_apartment_landlord_complaint_help.html
it will cost you $35 in filing fees, but surely worth it. By the way, I was reading that once you file you are protected against landlord retaliation. So, really, that makes the most sense.

Congrats on getting your first rental unit. It can be frustrating when things like this happen, however, it can be avoidable. Just because you paid your rent late does not exactly mean that you owe any other fees beyond the late fee and penalty you already paid.
This may be something that an RPA Agent can help you with. I would consider going through their complaint system. At least that way you would know that your rights are being met. If the fees can be waived or non-valid, I’m sure they would know.
