How much is your security deposit?
If you're charging $1500-ish/month for a single family home, is it reasonable to ask equivalent of two months ($3000) for the security deposit?
I'm finally at that stage of landlord where I'm committed to better rehabs and getting higher quality tenants. My previous tenants would do so much damage at move out, they'd wipe a good portion of the gains I would have gotten.
