Property manager (PM) 's lawyer continued the case to get the unpaid rent from the tenant.PMA between landlord and property manager(PM) has also expired so landlord got the property back , but when landlord requested to settle the account and the deposit( there is one month deposit from landlord also), PM refuses since the lawsuit is going on with the tenant, Additionally PM is still charging the monthly property management fees from landlord even though landlord is managing the property.Landlord is done dealing with PM and requested the PM to withdraw the lawsuit against the tenant ( landlord is aware that he will loose 2 months rent), PM came back saying they cannot withdraw the lawsuit since that will violate fair housing law.QUESTION:Does withdrawing unpaid rent case against the tenant violate fair housing law ?

My involvement in this dispute of deposit money began and ended in those screenshots I supplied.

Quote from @Matthew Beninate: Quote from @Sarita Scherpereel: Quote from @Seo Hui Han: You may want to consider local banks / credit unions just because many of them will require or give you more favorable terms for things like HELOC's and other line of credit products if you have a deposit account with them. 

Each jurisdiction is different, but typically include a substantial deposit due same day up to full price deposited that day. 

They can't afford the double deposit, indicating they live on the edge at the moment.

The lower the score, the higher the risk and the more we charge for a deposit.

Would you take an escrow account with a deposit?

Ensuring a solid lease agreement and security deposit will help mitigate this.

Withholding the entire amount of the security deposit doesn’t even cover the costs incurred. 

They didn’t completely destroy the house, I did keep most of their security deposit and used it for the repairs, along with some of our own cash.
