Yes, you should do it quickly. If you/your student first choice is an LLC, you will likely get your first choice dorm.
We purchased our son’s in April of last year.Received the conformation email that he got his first choice garage space July 7. Son’s first choice dorm was Mosher LLC. The South Side Garage is the garage for all of the Commons.Second choice space was lot 40. I think third was West Side Garage but I am not sure. It was somewhere on the list.

There is not “priority date” for buying a pass (like there is for housing) but But current permit holders have priority. A lot of spaces will be given up because freshmen move off campus and will take the bus to campus and perhaps have night or weekend pass. Some off campus kids still do like to drive in daily.

Look at a campus map and see which lots/garages will best suit your needs in relation to your dorm. There are some limitations when choosing your list of preferences so make note of those when selecting.
