    I’m surprised no one ever talks about deposits. I’ve been renting for like 25 years and have moved a fair bit. Never had a deposit not returned. Yet I still pay it. Half months rent just locked away. Imagine opening a building for rent. 100 units. Each suite averages $2k. That’s $100k like that. Poof. It’s there. Always being replenished as people come and go. How many tenants actually fuck things up, badly enough to need repairs?

    How about if you’ve been renting for 10 years without incident, you get a pass. flips water bottle
