Prorated Rent Calculator

Last updated: April 19, 2025

Introduction to Prorated Rent

Prorated rent lets you pay only for the days you occupy a rental property. Using a prorated rent calculator streamlines payments and ensures accuracy for both tenants and landlords.

What is Prorated Rent?

Prorated rent represents the specific amount you owe when occupying a property for less than a full rental period. This method directly benefits renters and landlords in the USA by tying payments to actual occupancy. You encounter prorated rent most often with mid-month move-ins or move-outs, short-term stays, or overlapping lease periods. For instance, if you move in on the 15th, you pay only for the number of days from the 15th to the end of that month, not the entire month.
