There are certain fees that must be paid in advance, such as a CREDIT CHECK fee. If the potential tenant has terrible credit, why would the landlord rent to them? It helps to know this up front, to weed out potential deadbeat tenants.

Why would you place down a deposit on an apt you’ve never seen. If you gave them a deposit, they have each right to keep it.

they can demand anything they want. If you don’t like the terms, then look somewhere else.
