An alternative could also be to have them pay a higher deposit.

A KPI could be saving for the earnest deposits.  

Their bank will mail a check monthly but the preference is to be fully automated and timely (not waiting for the mail and to make the deposit).

They use deposit slips and drop the rent off at the bank.  

The average price per land for urban infill going 6-12 stories high on a higher density product is about 5 million an acre up to about 25 million an acre. downtown market premiums I've seen at the highest are 1200 a sq ft. in columbus you can get land about 1.5 million per acre downtown at best price, sells for about 600 a sq ft max, very little competition compared to miami. tampa I didn't really look at too much because miami has 22 zip codes that you can build at least 6 or 8 stories on and just a much better landscape than other markets. tampa is a little bit bigger than columbus but in my opinion more of a suburban market. miami is landlocked and very limited so everything is in redevelopment. both are amazing opportunities but the barrier to entry is much higher in Miami with the smallest plots of land infill going for at least 1.5 million I would say in areas like Wynwood Norte, Wynwood, etc. we looked all over but prefer east of 95 due to the condominium opportunities. multifamily is very strong in both markets but the condo premiums make it almost silly not to do one from the start and the use of deposits versus a single asset lease up and disposition is a longer sales cycle than the condo buildings being sold out prior to completion.

Heard through a friend as potential for cash flow even with current rates and growth potential due to proximity to TX north border, casinos etc.   

Here's an explanation of the law: https://portal.ct.gov/dob/rental-security-deposits/rental-se...You must send an itemized list of deductions.

Of those that require repairs, everything is covered by their deposit.

Agent just alerted me to the new Maryland HB693 bill that went into effect Oct. 1 2024 limiting security deposits to 1 months rent.

As the current tenants been there for some times, deposits as well as the rents seems to be lower than what the market suggests.
