Yes, did you expect it would be free. You get to pay the whole month and remainder of the lease too.

Do you have to pay full rent after you have paid a month and a half rent plus security?

If you mean prior to moving in, No. In order to secure the apartment, you're paying first months rent plus security so there's no need to pay it again. Obviously you'll pay again at the end of the month or start of the first for the second month and so forth until you decide to move out.


When you pay first and last security deposit on a rental home and you stayed there for your first month do you owe after the first 30 days or do you start paying on the second month you just don't get?

Normally you start paying the rent after 30 days. The landlord keeps the "last" months rent as a security deposit until you move out. In some states, you can use this as the final month's rent on your lease (usually the 12th month.) If you renew your lease the landlord will keep it until your final 30 days. . . that's why it's called the "last" month's rent.


What does advance payment of monthly rent mean?

I assume it means that the landlord would like a months rent up front. So, for example, you move into a house in March, and he would want you to pay March twice, once for the actual month, and another to be in advance. Probably in case you was to ever lose your job/income, that way you still have a month left in the property and you don't have to move out straight away.


It is against the law for the landlord to ask for first and last months rent to someone who is renting?

Massachusetts statutes allow a landlord to collect, at the beginning of a tenancy, the first month's rent, the last month's rent, a security deposit, and a key fee. Most states are similar.


Can you pay a security deposit then move in and prorate later in the month ie Pay security deposit on the first to secure the home then move in on the middle of the month and pro rate?

NO. A security deposit is equal to one, one and a half or two months rent as regulated by your state Landlord Tenant Law, according to RentLaw.com . It depends on the landlord. Most companies will be happy to do this for you. Know that it is illegal for landlords to charge "double rent" on an apartment (having two parties paying rent for the same unit). Some landlords will try and pro-rate the last month rather than the first month. Be leery of this, but if you must accept it, get it in writing, make sure it's included in your lease agreement, and keep a copy in a place where you can find it. You shouldn't have any problem doing what you're describing, as long as you stick to your move-in date. Landlords get nervous when people push moving in back more than a few days.

Yes.


If you move into an apartment and have paid your first month's rent but are moving out on the first what month do you have to pay a full month's rent?

If your rent is month-to-month, then you probably do not have to pay a full months rent for the month that you're moving out. However, if you're just moving in, having just signed a lease, then you're responsible for the rent during the entire term of the lease or until the landlord rents out the unit, which ever comes first.

When should you pay rent again after paying for the security deposit and first month's rent?

If rent is due on the first of each month and you move in Feb 1 and pay a security deposit and 1st month's rent at that time, your next rent payment is due March 1. You can show up at the leasing office on March 1 and pay. You don't have to be early. If fact, some landlords will give you a certain number of days in a "grace period" where they won't charge you or bother you if you pay within those few days after the due date. Some landlords like for rent to be paid on the first of each month regardless of when you move in. In that case, if you move in in the middle of the month, you will pay pro-rated rent for the partial month and your deposit when you sign the rental agreement, but your first full payment will be due on the 1st of the following month.

What do you pay to the landlord before you move in?

To move into a dwelling, the landlord is going to generally ask you for the first month's rent, a security deposit, and often times the last months rent. Every state has its own rules about this and you should check with it. In South Carolina and Florida your security deposit may not exceed one month's rent. And in both states that security deposit may not be used as rent unless you and the landlord mutually agree.


Landlord has last months rent plus security. can I live out last months rent?

How much would you pay on an apartment for 6 months with 2 months rent deposit and rent of 325.00 a month?

Basically, you're paying for 8 months at $325 a month. Therefore, your total cost would be $2600 excluding utilities. $650 of which will be your deposit. The remaining $1950 is actual rent.


If you pay a security deposit and first months rent is the following month going to be in full payment of the rent or prorated?

The first month's rent pays for your first month in the apartment. You will owe the agreed-upon rent to the landlord the second month. I can't see why anything would be prorated--your security deposit cannot be used for rent.
