When did Mr Bingley intend to take possession of the house he rented?

He intended to take possession at Michaelmas, September 29. The English court system divided the year into quarters, and one of these began at Michaelmas. It was typical for leases to begin at the beginning of a legal quarter, so Michaelmas was a common day for people to take possession of a newly leased house. Incidentally, the language in the novel may seem confusing to a modern eye. Bingley rents Netherfield, but Darcy says he expects Bingley to give the place up when an eligible purchase is offered. He is referring to the purchase of the lease.
