@Jefferson Black- thanks - I am not aware of any lender that  will do a loan on an INV  manuf home property ...you might contact the local small to mid size credit unions and banks in your area ...you also might try the bank that you have  funds deposited at - good luck

I might consider them if I had no other candidates , but only with 2 months security deposit in addition to the rent. 

But now he’s asking when he’ll get his deposit back.

Would there be any reason for me to not get an FHA loan and put down a bigger deposit, any benefits to that?

Hi,  We took a property off the market 6 weeks ago because we landed some tenants that paid a deposit / holding fee. 

The security deposit is not rent.

But, their fake logo was terrible and the fonts didn't match.2) At least 80% of employers not direct deposit only.

At least in NJ its straight ad valorem, with the various tax assessors updating assessments in a periodic hodgepodge way...Pre 2007, our attorneys did the closings and the brokers held the initial deposits. 

Also she has not added in one of the rentals deposits into the account and had shorted me on two other deposits.

Thank you all for your wisdom, it seems consistent that the Heloc for a deposit only makes the most sense.
