Luckily, when that happens, you don’t necessarily have to pay that entire month’s rent. In other words, the tenant could pay a prorated rent, an amount that reflects the number of days you’ve lived in the rental.

Depending on laws and location, developers dont always include a spot or storage space for every unit. The benefit of creating a finite number of underground parking spots and storage rooms is that condo units cost less (it can cost a developer more than $100,000 to build just one parking space).
