Collecting rental deposit from credit card?

[Mark Hower]

Leasing my first long term rental. 

Tenant has asked if I can charge their American Express for the security deposit amount. The only potential issue I see with this is that they could potentially do a charge back at the end of the lease term (or earlier) for the amount. This is a higher end property and the deposit is at $3800/month. 

Everything else checks out good for tenant- background, credit, rental history, income level.

This isn't ideal, but I don't have tons of other leads for this particular property at this price point, so I'm considering it to get it rented.

Thoughts?
