Turnover Cost Estimator

Vacancy is the silent budget killer. Most landlords underestimate what a single tenant turnover costs by 30–50%. Enter your numbers below for the itemized, all-in cost — then decide whether that rent increase is worth the move-out.

Monthly rent $

Vacant days (expected)

Notice period + make-ready + re-lease time

Professional cleaning $

Paint / touch-up $

Repairs & maintenance $

Advertising / listing fees $

Leasing fee (agent or placement service)

None % of one month's rent Flat $

Fee value

Enter % (e.g. 50) or $ depending on selection

Other turnover costs $

Lock changes, utilities during vacancy, etc.

Rule of thumb: a typical turnover runs 2–4 months of rent all-in. If you're about to push a good tenant out over a $50 rent increase, this math should change your mind.
