How Prorated Rent Works

When a tenant moves in during the middle of a month, landlords typically charge a prorated amount for the first partial month. This calculator uses the daily rate method:

  1. Calculate the daily rate by dividing monthly rent by the number of days in the month
  2. Count the number of days the tenant will occupy the unit (from move-in date to end of month)
  3. Multiply the daily rate by the number of occupied days

This ensures fair rent calculation where the tenant only pays for the days they actually occupy the property.
