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

You need lease and deposit check at closing so the property has to be move in ready not a rehab.

Best practices for security deposit deductions (damages)?

Most of the time the tenants are responsible for the deposit.

Earnest Money Deposit 3. 

I'm absolutely not interested in leasing fast at all and I'm extremely picky about tenants and I do things like require a large security deposit (even for section 8 renters, I have three of them and love them), don't supply appliances, take my time doing background checks and arranging multiple calls/meetings with potential tenants. 

Deposit will take all of other damages left. 

So you could open an account here to make quick deposits?

That is not a benefit for you, nor any kind of evidence that they are worthy of becoming a resident.That issue aside, I would not allow someone with a recent eviction on my property unless the "unfortunate circumstance" was unlikely to recur AND they otherwise have a strong historical track record of making payments AND they would put down a very large security deposit.

@Andrew C.I have the same questions about it as well.. for example, you now have say 5 leases that likely are all for different date ranges/terms and deposits etc. do you do all males or all females together - I'm assuming this depends on the state you're in?
