I've heard of people having the funds within a day or two of applying.The loan is direct deposited into your checking account and can be used pretty much however you see fit.

I wasn't happy)I got to deposit the biggest check I've ever received on Friday and it was a pretty awesome feeling.  

She tells me that she no longer can live at the house and that I can keep her deposit.

My questions is for the next tenant I want to add some things to my lease.1) 2 month rent penalty if they break the lease2) When they sign the lease they pay me damage deposit and 1st month's rent which is non refundable if they break the lease.

I recently represented a landlord in a security deposit dispute with a tenant.

Then again we (readers) don't know if they have $500K in deposits with the lending bank, if it's the 15th deal with that bank, etc.

But those are a different animal in that if a buyer backs out (even surrenders their deposit) they still have the "marketing engine" running so it's easier to get another person to (in essence) pick up that contract.

Things like closing period, earnest money deposit, and reputation of the buyer can play a big role in whether or not your offer is accepted. 

It is a document entitled "How to get Your Security Deposit Back" and also sets the expectations for how we want our unit's left.  

They are looking to do a double close and appear to want a deposit before we go to closing.
