Personally, I would keep the deposit out of the conversation.

@Danny RandolphYeah, I’m currently in the construction field and we usually get a 20-40% deposit, then get draws after certain stages/inspections have been passed

Your property listing can also be a great way to lay out qualifying criteria (i.e credit score minimum, and require a co-signer if lower).After conducting due diligence into a particular tenants situation, and you decided to proceed with an application approval, you could require a higher security deposit. 

*Tenant payments via ACH not deposited into a Baselane Banking account will incur a $2 fee.

I "signed up" for the class just to see the entire process, but I delayed my deposit and any other funds for a few days to figure out all of their angles.I picked up on a few things myself:1) The Fortune 500 cover and article that our mentor "Jason" mentioned on Day 1 was to establish his credibility.

Then after they take their fees, and any repair costs for the month, I get direct deposits to my account of the remaining balance.

You have a $2,700 deposit with a pet.

Given your questioning, it sounds like you might have put a deposit way too quickly on that property.

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

At least a bank that you have your relationship with and super strong deposits  and could probably hypothicate them and get a under 10% rate.. just musing..
