Any thought on this from L.A. area house-hackers out there?
I'm looking for a roommate to share a SFR and the BP book advises collecting an entire month's rent for the Hold Fee. It's my first toe-dip into house-hacking and I just know that in my prior rental experiences, the Hold Fee wasn't a full month's rent amount, it was a % that then got applied towards the remainder of the Security Deposit.
Does everyone else request the full Security Fee amount as the Deposit to Hold?
