Collecting rent

[Osmirelly Kidwell]

Hi Guys,

I bought my first rental property on the 23rd and already have a tenant from out of state. They already passed the smartmove screening with A+, paid deposit and applications fees. My question is, when should I collect the first month of rent? They are moving Feb 10th. Should the rent be paid in advance or should I wait until the end of the month to collect for 18 days? Please help
