How to Use This Prorated Rent Calculator
Our free prorated rent calculator determines fair rent for partial months when tenants move in or out mid-month. Enter the monthly rent and move date for an accurate daily proration.
Prorated rent is calculated by dividing monthly rent by days in the month, then multiplying by occupancy days. This ensures tenants only pay for the days they actually live in the property.
Both landlords and tenants benefit from fair proration. It reduces move-in disputes and helps retain good tenants. Our calculator handles leap years and different month lengths automatically.
