Were they ever going to return the fee?
Usually it is applied against the deposit when the lease is signed.

A couple weeks ago my family paid holding fee for an apartment with move-in date 6/10.
...wouldn't be ready until 6/14

I'd hold out for the first place offered.
Turn their bait&switch ploy on it's ear.

Should be there any gap between sign date and move-in date...?

There often is and for many reasons.
The real issue is when/whether the deposits and rents are paid and unit being ready.
Don't pay a deposit, let alone rent, on any unit not ready to be moved into at that time.
If the unit is ready and YOU are not... be prepared to pay some extra rent.
