I plan to buy, 51% own, remodel, rent homes and offer a minority ___% interest to hard money lenders secured by the following: 1) their holding a first mortgage and 2) quarterly loan  ___% interest payments and 3)  ___% share of annual depreciation and 4) ___% share of sale proceeds at or before or near year eight per market then.

@Ginger Schmidt You are definitely allowed to require a security deposit with a new lease.

I was Security Force in the Air Force.  

I was able to secure an FHA loan and they were able to get the deal done, as long as I could convince the sellers to move the closing.After giving up most of the closing costs I negotiated, the sellers agreed to push back closing and asked for a bit more earnest money. 

Did they give all the security deposit back?

If you don't know where this is, it borders both Washington, DC and Northern Virginia.  

Many title companies have lawyers on staff that can draft a mortgage and promissory note to secure their interest.

We see real estate investment as tool to put us in a better position to secure a legacy for the next generation while also providing us the means to do more for others in need!

You can also use the regular security deposit towards pet damage.

I currently work for a security company now, but I'm looking to transition out of that and start an entrepreneurial career.
