My lease expires on August 9 and I have to pay well over the prorated rent for 9 days for the month of August. I thought you calculated prorates by dividing your rent by the number of days in the month. My landlord told me my rent is higher than this because she prorates by 360 days, not by days of the month and that she does this to prevent me from paying for more than 5 days I won't be living in the apartment. I don't understand this logic or definition of prorration at all. I pay rent on a monthly basis, too, so what dollar amount is she dividing by 360 days? I think I'm being scammed!
