Tim - I generally advise that you are moved out, and the house is "is available to rent" before completing those repairs. I just did this myself and waited until I had moved (with receipts showing the moving expense and dates, along with pictures), then commenced the repairs 24 hours later, with a 2-3 week timeline for completion. In this case, I can then show the property in the interim and set a move-in/availability date for the first of April.

That's a fairly conservative approach but will only delay you a few weeks. You do not need it rented beforehand, but it should be "available to rent," meaning you are out and have a new residence.
