I have to maintain security practices.  

I'm considering a rental agreement that states the move-out date in the contract (with option to extend under certain terms), and has them pay the full 2-3 months' rent up front, with a half-month security deposit also due prior to taking residence.

I am currently procesing an eviction for failiture to pay two months of rent, how ever this is an inherited tenant from when I purchased the property whom I dont have any social security or ID information of him just his name.

But anyway, should I charge them some small amount, maybe $200, our of the security deposit even though I was going to be replacing the carpet anyway after they moved out?

The idea is to use investor capital to secure rental units.

What kind of LOC is it (i.e. secured, unsecured) and do you know for sure it's legit? 

Many people waste years, in no thousands of dollars, before coming to this realization.There is still a roll for you to play, even if you're not "passionate about real estate".Think of it like a live professional sporting event...There are players on the field, fans in the stands and vendors (usually selling fan gear) inside and outside the stadium or arena.Everyone has a part to play, and when it goes well, everyone has a great time.The folks on the field are the ones who should be on the field.

I am just getting into Real Estate by obtaining my license and working to secure an inspection franchise.

Better job security and I am not subject to his/her rules/standards if they become outlandish.

I am wanting to sell some very secure cashflow from NNN leased commercial property with BBB- or better national credit tenants.
