Thankfully my job covers my insurance completely and gives me 20k in equity every year but no 401k match.

I usually charge a $50 deposit per pet and $50/month per pet. 

First off, it is extremely difficult in today’s market to find any “deal” that matches up to his criteria, but in my mind I had actually found one.

It matches the typical demographics who rent MTRs: individuals or couples for 1 bedrooms, families for 3-4 bedroom homes.

The Mortgagee must obtain a lease agreement of at least one year’s duration after the Mortgage is closed and evidence of the payment of the security deposit or first month’s rent.

So there is a miss-match and you end up paying more then you should.This, if true (I think it is), now makes some sense.

It usually starts with a notice being posted, so get that done asap to 'start the clock'.Keep in mind you should receive their security deposit as a transfer from the previous landlord as a part of closing, so that will at least compensate you somewhat for the lost income if they haven't trashed the place and such.One other set of questions would be - do you want them to leave?  

Curious if your employer matches your 401k?

You could also consider a small security deposit as well.

For the month of August 2024, they are saying that they have hardship and want me to use the money they paid as security deposit (2X rent).Legally, am I required to use security deposit towards rent when they are delinquent or can I move forward with eviction process?
