I've always had overlap on leases in the past, but this year the timing works out bizarrely. If your lease ends on July 31 but you can't move in until Aug. 1, what on earth are you supposed to do for the night in between?

Stay in a hotel for a night, treat yourself for all the hard work. Let the boxes be in Uhaul truck

like

I had friends legit sleep in their uhaul once. But in all honesty, normally what happens is you get everything packed and in the truck on the 31st, and then sleep in your apt and finish clean out super early the next morning. All of this is done with arrangement with the incoming tenants, usually. They’re typically moving out of somewhere that ended the 31st as well, unless they have overlap in which they may give you more grace to clear out on the 1st.

Heck, we stayed with a cousin for 3 weeks when we had a weird rental gap--even brought our cats. (But yes, usually a hotel, or sofa surf for a night, or many times there isn't a new tenant for your old place coming right in, so you can just sleep on your old floor)

Talk to you landlord, I’m sure this isn’t something to worry about.

How do you do this with movers

Ask your movers - this is such a common scenario in Boston they’ll have good advice they can recommend.

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!
