<p>DD has a student apartment (privately run, rents to only students.) She has a 12-month lease that runs from Aug. to Aug. We had to pay for the whole Aug. rent but no one could move in until Aug. 15. If you lived there before, you still had to be out from Aug. 1 to Aug. 15, though you could leave stuff there. </p>
<p>I’m not sure how it is legal to charge full price for a place you can’t live in for half of the month, but that is how all the complexed worked where she is and how they work around here.</p>
