Yes. You have a contract, which was consummated when you paid money and the landlord let you move in. Most states have statutes dictating how deposits must be handled.

Usually you can get your deposit back if nothing improper (i.e. failure to perform by you)is done by you. Check your agreement of sale for the terms related to your deposit. Check with a local attorney. As long as you have a "mortgage contingency" clause in your agreement and you notify the seller in writing prior to the time of the expiration of said clause, you should be all set.

How can I hire a cosigner for a loan or rental agreement?

To hire a cosigner for a loan or rental agreement, you need to find someone who is willing to vouch for you and take on the responsibility of paying back the loan or rent if you are unable to.

You will need to discuss the terms of the agreement with them and make sure they understand their obligations before signing any documents.
