Some landlords report that it regularly takes around six months to start receiving direct deposits from the government.

Don't be surprised if the insurance company has the family provide the security deposit.

The claims of 1hr to collect rent, produce receipts, and deposit checks also seems like a reasonable claim if done physically and not electronically.

We have to order six months ahead from our Mennonite source and put a deposit down

Are you only referring to damages in excess of the deposit?

Offer to give them their full deposit in cash on move-out day, if they leave the place clean and empty, etc.  

I did not read the rules around security deposits. you may be allowed to use those funds and still file a small claims action for any remainder, but I can't imagine that it would be worth it if you have at least one month's rent in security deposit. 

However, it does mean forfeiting the deposits which is tough to swallow. 

Can I risk building a home at the slot and sell it which will be faster than selling a lot? 

Tell them to get out in seven days, use the deposit for unpaid rent, cleaning, and repairs.
