How to Use a Prorate Rent Calculator Move In for a Smooth Transition
Last updated: April 13, 2025
Understanding Prorated Rent
Prorated rent refers to a method of calculating rent for a partial month’s occupancy. When you move into a new rental unit, your lease may not begin on the first of the month, leading to the need for a prorated rent calculation. It ensures you pay only for the days you're in your new home.
What Is Prorated Rent?
