deposited in a demand deposit account?  

I’ve already put down a $2,000 earnest deposit and paid for the inspection and appraisal.This event is unprecedented in the area, as the area is typically low in violence and considered very safe.

. - PM provides a cash based accounting report every month, for every unit under management, that clearly labels all rent, all expenses, including management fees, and the net directly ties to the amount of money deposited into my bank account.- PM is a licensed handyman, or has them on staff, and takes care of most unit turn work at a reasonable rate. - PM has no breakup/termination fee- PM does not take project management fees, except on large or complicated CapEx projects exceeding $5,000. 

Nomad also held the renter's deposit hostage even after I cleared the transfer with no damages to be charged.I had to remind Nomad there is a difference between “can” and should” , while you “can” hold a deposit longer it “should” only be done when there is a question about damages.My bank liked the guarantee, the disorganization inside Nomad and the horrible vendor management would cause me not to use them again.

Follow the step for the deposit-even if it is to send a registered letter to their last known address stating that the deposit was used for outstanding rent and whatever damages or cleaning was needed (itemize it). 

@Bob Asad at our bank, we have an escrow account for security deposits, it is set up with sub-accounts for each tenant with their security deposit amount and their SSN.

I’ve never had a problem with a lender when I showed them the deposit that was made into that account.

Says they are "fly by night," never returned my Deposit, Closed in Austin, looking for more "Suckers in Tampa, Florida." 

We have some $ saved  but don’t have enough to put a full 20% deposit down as needed by most conventional lenders.
