.: I don't charge deposits for animals because deposits are fully refundable.

Also the Voucher doesn't cover the security deposit which in most cases, I have to put my S8 tenants on a security deposit payment plan for those to get them qualified to move-in on my applications.

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

Yes, if you know the lenders who do not care about seasoning, no if you do not or get the money and season it so the deposit can't be seen.Now, that is a nightmare scenario and let me tell you why. 

Not sure the extent but f the damage yet but the few things she told me about will go beyond the security deposit.  

Hi Nick, as mentioned before if you put a greater deposit down, you could get a better rate as a result. 

It markets our properties, screens our tenants, collects our rent, deposits it into our bank accounts, has full accounting and reporting features, has a tenant facing web portal & app where tenants can log in and report maintenance issues and see their account, etc, for $2/door/month - but they have a $45 minimum monthly fee... so up until you cross 22 doors it would be $45.

You can also request a security deposit for extra peace of mind. 

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

Needless to say the 95 page home inspection revealed that the property is in less than move-in-ready conditioned.We cancelled Escrow and requested our deposit back.
