When is the unit ready date for vacancy claims determined?

The unit ready date for vacancy claims is determined on the day after all work is completed. This date is significant because it marks the point at which the unit is fully prepared for re-occupancy, meaning any necessary repairs, cleaning, and maintenance tasks have been finished. It is essential that the unit be in optimal condition before being re-rented to a new tenant, as this impacts both tenant satisfaction and potential rental income.

Determining the unit ready date as the day after all work is completed ensures that the property meets the necessary standards and that the claim accurately reflects the time it takes to make the unit available again. Other choices may suggest an earlier or unrelated date, but only the completion of all required work ensures that a vacancy claim is valid and justifiable.
