Prorated Rent Calculator

Prorated rent is a partial rent payment calculated for the portion of a month that a tenant occupies a rental property. It's commonly used when tenants move in or move out mid-month.

Prorated rent is calculated by dividing the monthly rent by the number of days in the month to get a daily rate, then multiplying by the number of days the tenant will occupy the property.

Prorated rent is typically used when tenants move in or move out on dates other than the first or last day of the month. This ensures fair payment for partial month occupancy.

For move-in: you pay for the remaining days in the month from your move-in date. For move-out: you pay for the days you occupied the property up to your move-out date.

Prorated rent requirements vary by state and local laws. Many jurisdictions require landlords to prorate rent for partial month occupancy, but specific rules depend on your location.

Include specific language about prorated rent in your lease agreement, specifying how it will be calculated and when it's due. This helps avoid disputes between landlords and tenants.
