With #1, 3, and 5, you are simply telling them when the office is avaible. With #2, you are telling them when they should move - which is not your job. #4 is a bit like #2 in that respect.

Yes, that's fine.
My objection to that in your sentence is that your job is to get the office ready. THEIR job is to determine their move-in date. It could be that June 1 isn't convenient for them, so you shouldn't tell them it's their move-in date.
They might put out a memo to their staff: The renovations are almost complete in our office space, so our move-in date has been se
