When I collect the holding deposit I have them sign a written agreement that they forfeit that deposit if they do not pay, sign a lease and move in by X date....If you don't have a written agreement I suppose you could still keep the deposit since they are unable to perform their part of the deal, and you held the place off the market for them.
