So we gave the current place we are living a 30 day notice on the 20th that we would be moving out…
So we gave the current place we are living a 30 day notice on the 20th that we would be moving out and technically we won’t even be here that long but I got the rent bill today and they are making us pay for the whole month of October even though we aren’t staying here the whole month of October. I called the landlord and he said they can’t “prorate” us for the days we won’t be here. I don’t mind paying them something but I don’t think we should have to pay the whole 30 days if we already paid for September and are moving out probably the first week of October. My mom said we should only have to pay $475 for the days our stuff or us would still be in the house. I told them in the notice we’d be out on the 20th of October and I wrote the notice and gave it to them on the 20th of December

We are going to be in the new place by Friday we didn’t even know we were gonna get this place until last Friday

Usually if you aren't out before the new month begins you have to pay for that month as well as much as it sucks.

That’s how most places operate

This is my first time being on a lease. I usually just lived with family before I had kids and met my husband

I think you should pay the whole month, you’d be there 90% of the month. That’s only fair 😬

Technically we’d be out by Friday but we had to give a 30 day notice because they demand one. We didn’t know we were getting it until Friday

You do have to pay the whole month. It's standard

Interesting. I’ve always gotten my rent prorated down to the day when I moved too. I’ve never been told that one. Check your local and state rent control laws before you agree.

I called the corporate office and they said it’s their policy and they can’t prorate for us

Most leases run until last day of the month. Unless you were on a week to week lease or something this is standard practice.

It’s pretty standard to pay the whole month. It’s not like they could find someone to start renting in the middle of the month like that.

It’s a trailer park lol I hate saying that because the way they are portrayed but we are finally moving into a house and they already have ads on Craigslist for their other homes

Can u not get out this week? That would be the only way to get out of paying for October...most real estate places are like this

We will be out the 27th but they wanted a 30 day notice and they already gave us the rent bill
Heather··
oh well that's crazy to me then.

@lifewithlynnieandwill88, my husband wants to tell them to keep the security deposit lol

We broke a lease and all they did was keep our security deposit.
