The rental payment schedule on Alcove differs slightly from traditional rentals and occurs earlier
Your first month's rent will be prorated based on your lease start date, and this prorated amount will be due on the first day of your lease.
For all subsequent months, your rent will be processed on the evening prior to the 15th day of the month for the following month's rent. This means that rent for the upcoming month is always paid in advance.
For example:
- If your lease starts on February 10th, your prorated rent for February will be due on February 10th.
- Your rent for March will be processed on February 14th at 9 pm EST.
- Your rent for April will be processed on March 14th at 9 pm EST, and so on.
