Prorated rent questions
How is prorated rent calculated?
Two conventions dominate: actual-days (monthly rent ÷ days in that month × days occupied) and the fixed-30 “banker's” method (rent ÷ 30 × days). Most states let the lease decide; we apply your state's prevailing default.
Which states require a specific method?
Only Minnesota prescribes proration by statute (Minn. Stat. § 504B.116) — actual calendar days, and lease waivers are voided. Everywhere else, the lease and prevailing practice control.
Do I count the move-in day?
Usually yes — occupied days are typically inclusive of both move-in and move-out days, but your lease can say otherwise.
Is the first month of a lease always prorated?
If you move in on the 1st, no. Any other day, the partial first month should be prorated — and many leases renewing mid-month also prorate the final month.
