Real Estate Leases FAQs

How much can I require for a security deposit?
The laws on security deposits vary by state. In most cases, the dollar amount you can require from each tenant is based on the monthly rental value. While some states set no fixed amount, many states enforce a maximum that is anywhere from one to three month's rent.
