Rent Calculator

Our rent calculator helps you work out rent per day, week, fortnight, calendar month, 6-month period or year. It can help you determine if you can afford rent over time, and calculate what you'll owe if you move out part-way through a payment period.

Select the rent payment period and enter how much rent you pay for that period. The calculator will show how much the rent is for each of the other time periods.

Note:

The calendar monthly amount is calculated as 365 divided by 12 times the daily rent amount, rather than 4 times the weekly amount. Calculations are based on 365-day years, not leap years.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are the rent calculator results?

Our rent calculator is based on standard 365-day year calculations, providing relatively accurate rent conversions. However, actual rent may vary due to rental agreements, local regulations, or special circumstances.

How do I determine the best rent payment period for me?

Choosing a rent payment period should consider your income frequency, cash flow management, and personal preferences. Generally, a rent payment period that matches your income cycle is easier to manage, such as monthly rent for those with monthly salaries.

Can the rent calculator be used for commercial leases?

Yes, our rent calculator is equally applicable for basic commercial lease rent conversions. However, commercial leases may involve additional fees, taxes, and special terms that need to be considered separately.

How are different rent periods converted?

Rent period conversions are based on a 365-day year. For example, monthly rent is daily rent multiplied by 365/12, not simply multiplied by 30 or 31.

Why isn't monthly rent 4 times the weekly rent?

Because a month averages 30.42 days (365/12), while 4 weeks is only 28 days, monthly rent is typically higher than 4 times the weekly rent.

How do I calculate rent for a partial rental period?

For incomplete rental periods, it's best to use the daily rent amount multiplied by the actual number of days of occupancy for the most accurate calculation.

How do I calculate rent for a partial period?

Use the daily rate and multiply by the exact number of days you occupy the property.

Which payment period should I pick?

Match your income cycle. If you're paid fortnightly, paying rent fortnightly usually makes cash-flow easier.
