I just had tenants move out of my investment property (duplex) without paying for the last month's rent, and the damage they inflicted onto the property exceeds their security deposit amount.

We also received a $2400 security deposit.

The crypto can be considered as EMD or down payment, the rest of the transaction will happen just as if you were running a traditional transaction.If a seller is completely against the idea of receiving crypto, you can always use a service like Bitpay to convert the cryptocurrency to cash.Last but not least, I always ask clients... why sell your crypto asset when you use it to secure a loan?

Nothing you mention is "ordinary" and you should charge for all of it. dodged a bullet there thats a very good price take it from the security deposit and call yourself lucky. 

By understanding the costs you may encounter upfront, you can take control of the process.Here are just a few things experts say you should be thinking about as you plan ahead.1.

Encourages Larger Investments: By offering higher returns at higher tiers, you incentivize investors to allocate more capital to your projects.Builds Long-Term Relationships: Investors appreciate being rewarded for deeper commitments, which helps foster trust and repeat business.Scales with Your Business: This structure can align with the complexity or scale of your projects, ensuring that you have the resources you need while staying competitive in the market.Key Benefits to InvestorsSecurity: Deals can be secured by tangible assets, such as a deed of trust or promissory note, providing peace of mind.Flexibility: Payments can be structured to suit the investor’s needs—monthly, quarterly, or upon project completion.Attractive Returns: With returns starting at 15%, investors often see better yields than traditional investment vehicles, like stocks or mutual funds.How We’ve Implemented ThisThis structure works particularly well for our large renovation or development projects where multiple investors may be involved.

Make sure to stay on top of things and don't trust too many people (especially the so-called experts). 

Quote from @James Miller: Quote from @Chris Seveney: Quote from @Stuart Udis: @Ryan Blake These investments can be secured, or at least better secured if papered correctly.

I understand this is a good way to become financially secure over time and am eager to start.  

@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.
