We offer a unique option for deposit that allows tenants the time needed to receive their old deposit from a previous property and gather the funds needed to cover their new deposit. This option requires 75% of the deposit down and the other 25% delayed with a monthly fee added until the full 25% remainder is paid.
Tenants will only be responsible for paying for repairs caused by tenants.
