How it works
Count the days from the move-in date to the end of that month, including the move-in day. Multiply the monthly rent by those days and divide by the number of days in the month.
Some leases split the month another way, or charge a set first-month fee. Your lease sets the rule that applies, so check it.
Worked example
With a monthly rent of $1,800.00 and a move-in with 12 days left in a month of 31 days, the prorated rent is $696.77.
Questions
Does the move-in day count?
Yes. The page counts it as a day you pay for. If your lease starts counting the next day, subtract one.
Why use the length of the month?
A prorated share is the part of the month you live in, so the total days in that month is the base to divide by.
Can the amount be less than a full month?
Yes, that is the point. The amount covers only the days in the first month, not the full rent.
