I agree with @Jamie Banks.I'm team Waivo and deposit.

Without their signatures, the deal was in jeopardy.After some negotiation, her older sister agreed to sign, but she had one unusual condition: she wanted to keep the home’s vintage crystal doorknobs.

I spoke with the renters, we agreed to two adolescent children and two infants. 

I agree with everything except the very last statement about paying cash to pay it off.

I agree with what everyone has said above.

If you’re running a MTR more like a STR, then you can decide to charge the full boat as agreed or, if you desire (possibly to obtain a good review) find a substitute renter for the period in question and credit the original renter.If, like me you operate a MTR more like a LTR just for a shorter period of time, you probably use a specific rental form provided by either the state real estate commission of the local NAR affiliate.  

@Jim Bouchard agreed with everyone just normal wear and tear, it happens. we just leased a brand new construction home and they've had like 4 things we've had to send someone out for (luckily all under warranty), but sometimes that stuff just happens.

Use your savings and equity to get the next one and keep this one. 100% agreed here.
