Lease End & Lease Start Window

Jason Curtis
Posted

Can I have tenants sign less than a 365 day lease (360 days) to allow 5 days for cleaning and repair maintenance work to be done before the new tenants move in? Am I required to prorate it?

Is there a better way to approach this type of situation?

@Jason Curtis You will want to schedule your leases accordingly. When we receive notice that a tenant is non renewing, we will make the apartment available for at least a week after the move out date. The new tenant will pay a pro rated amount for the amount of days they are occupying the apartment.
