The best days are in the first 4 to 5 days of
the month the earlier the better.

Supply Demand
On the simple basis of supply and demand these
first days of the month provide the best
selection and largest amount of suites
available. Landlords usually rent on a first
come first serve basis so being there sooner than
everyone else gives you the best chance of
finding that perfect apartment. Existing tenants
have to provide 30 day written notice on or
before the last day of the month so in the first
days of the month the building managers will be
aware of exactly what is coming up for
availability on top of anything that is currently
vacant. With more suites available this gives
you the chance to find the best suite for the
money you can afford and not having to settle
for less due to the urgency to move.

The Logistics Of Moving
If you find a place this early in month you will
also have a much easier time reserving a U-haul,
arranging with friends to help and booking with
professional moving companies if you choose to
use one.
Should you need a day off from work most places
of employment prefer if you give them as much
advance notice as possible giving you the chance
not to have to try to move after work in the
dark.

SERVICES
Having a place all lined up early in the month
will also result in being able to have all your
services such as cable, hydro, phone and
internet hooked up for your day of move in
instead of having to go without until the next
available appointment after they are booked up
with the early renters.

Personal Well-Being (aka Stress Reduction)
With everything above taken care of so early in
month just think about how much less stressful
you move will be and we all know moving can be
very stressful in the best of conditions, never
mind if you waited until later in the month. So
be smart and apartment search early and be
happy. With all these benefits on the table it
will not get any better than in those first few
days so good luck and happy renting!
