scrartcl without author?

Question

I want to write a cost estimation for my part of a large business proposal, and I just tried scrartcl. My address I put in the top left corner using \titlehead. As it already contains my name, I did not specify \author. Now there is a gap between the title and the date.

Is it possible to reduce that gap? Should I better use another class?

I also considered scrlttr2, but it doesn't seem appropriate either: There is only my address, i.e. no destination address.

Example:

\documentclass[paper=a4]{scrartcl}

\title{Cost estimation}
% \author{}
\titlehead{Name\\Street\\City\\VATIN}
\date{11.10.2013}

\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Milestones}
Description
\section{Cost}
Estimation
\end{document}

Answer 1

You could for example write \date{\vspace{-1cm}11.10.2013} and adjust the space as you like it.
