First, this does not help the LL out money-wise. By "sliding" a T from 1 unit, to another, you STILL have a vacancy, just not in the same unit. I have done this before. Tell the T they must pay you for a double rent amount for 1 month, for the unit they are moving into. You will consider that extra rent as their 30 day notice they are moving. Then you can start advertising the unit they vacated, and still have rent for both units for 30 days. When you tell Ts this, it stops the movement between units real quick. (I hope you can understand this, as it's a little complicated to explain)

You could also ask them to pay the deposit on the new unit in advance. After they move you treat them like any other tenant and return any remaining deposit on the old unit within the time required by your state.
