you can't do anything because you're holding the room for someone that you can charge rent for yet.

Welcome to BP-- Instead of Rental houses --stay with students --Single Family home -rented to three or four students --will be more profitable and will have better positive cash flow then SFR --being Close to campus-you can even have bunk beds and have six or more students in one house --with a common kitchen and living room --give them a nice 42" or 50" TV and cable connections--free interenet --etc summer may be vacant --so charge rent for 9 months and keep cash reserve for summer month's mortgage payments --How much money do you have in 401K ?

Can a landlord legally charge rent in a different currency?

Does anybody know of these types of accounts where there are lower charge rates?

They are also more likely to intentionally charge rent below market with the  misconception that tenants will stay longer.

So then if you charge rents of say 820-860 rent per unit depending on finish if I normally charge 840 I could make rent at the high end and then give a 20 rent credit for paying early.Might be something to try.It's all about the perception of these tenants thinking they will get a deal.

For us we do not do 'holding fees' we just charge rent.

I would charger her the $900 fee for early termination out side of holding the deposit. 

She is a hard charger worker, that can start anywhere in any business and learn to excel at it, that is not an issue.
