@Chris SeveneyYesAllOf those things, just don’t forget to have receipts for everything you deduct from the security deposit.

But get them and the family staying in the home both on the lease since the insurance is paying the rent, but the family is usually responsible for the deposit.

My inherited tenants ALL SMOKE and none had security deposits. 

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

The thing I like best is the interest is deposited in my  account every month.

For example, when I take on a rehab I typically deposit the budget into a separate checking account solely for that rehab and pay all the rehab expenses from there making it easy to identify in my bookkeeping.

Hello @Luis Herna,In this scenario, the buyer should provide the EMD (Earnest Money Deposit), as they’re the one ultimately purchasing the property.

A realtor who used to have a PM company called "JBS Realty" until this month.He used to manage 8 of my properties and is currently refusing to pay out multiple 5-figures worth of rents/property reserves/security deposits/unpaid utility bills owed. 

I also offer specialty deposits including real estate trust accounts.
