Des Moines, IA Move In Specials Apartments for Rent with Parking

Find the best rent specials and move-in deals in Des Moines ! From waived security deposits to two months of free rent, Apartment Finder offers a range of apartment specials for renters looking for a deal. When you're searching to save money, a rent special could be ideal. There are a variety of specials that apartments offer, and there are factors to consider for each. For example, a reduced or waived security deposit means you don't have to pay this up front. However, when you move out, you'll likely have to pay for any damage to the unit.

Move-in specials vary throughout the year, and you might find better deals in the off-season (typically from October to March). Sometimes, you can negotiate your own rent deal, so don't be afraid to ask when you tour the apartment. By asking the right questions, you could score free parking for a limited time or even a reduced rate on a garage or storage unit.

With 70 apartments with move-in specials available in Des Moines, finding a great deal is easy on Apartment Finder. On the list of apartments, look above the property's name. If that property offers a rent special, you'll see it here! Click on the property and look for the highlighted box that provides more details about the deal. Call and speak with the property manager directly to get the full details about the move-in deal or rent special.
