First and last months security deposit is given so the landlord has a means of repairing any damage you might do to the house. It encourages the renter to take care of the property in order to get their deposit back.
"Requirements for an FHA home loan vary depending on what kind of loan you are applying for. If you are applying for a re-structuring loan, you need to own a home. If you are applying for a first mortgage, you need good credit, a deposit and a social security number."
One can keep their cash safe in their home by storing the cash in a safe deposit or a locker cabinet. If keeping any valuables in any of these storage, make sure they have a security component, which allows one to generate passwords. However, it is wiser for one to deposit their money in their bank account.
No. Definitely not. A Banks safe deposit box is much much safer than a safety deposit box in a home.
The name of the company is Home Loans, but its not really true that they are giving no deposit home its just they do allow to borrow 95% of the purchase price.
If you are renting the property from someone else and do not own it, no, because a home equity loan is like a mortgage. The lender has a lien on the property if you default on the loan. If you are the owner of a property and rent it out, yes you should be able to get a loan with the property as security.
in Cleveland OH it's a given that it would be the same as a month's rent. Warning: from my personal experience do NOT use that as your last month's rent.
Normally you start paying the rent after 30 days. The landlord keeps the "last" months rent as a security deposit until you move out. In some states, you can use this as the final month's rent on your lease (usually the 12th month.) If you renew your lease the landlord will keep it until your final 30 days. . . that's why it's called the "last" month's rent.
Renting a first home may be difficult if you have bad credit and/or no references. If you are able to put up a substantial security deposit it should be a much easier process.
Yes, unless you caused the fire.
Usually, but it's up to the discretion of the landlord. You can possibly negotiate with them if you can convince them that you are trustworthy.
You need to sign a rental agreement and pay a damage deposit. Also make sure you get payment protection insurance from a place like Home Away's Carefree Rental Guarantee.
You usually will need to make a down payment if you are buying a rental home & either taking out a loan from a bank or other lender, or working with the owner to finance for you. If you are renting a home, as opposed to buying a home to rent out, then you will need what is called a security deposit, which is usually the equivalent of three months worth of rent payments.
You will lose your deposit at least. At worst the owner/agent will seek damages against you in civil court.

I have booked a vacation rental property, paid a deposit of $1250 over 6 months ago, and the landlord has just canceled my booking because she sold the property. What are my rights?
Most states have a statute which limits the amount of a security deposit, usually to one month's rent.
It depends on the jurisdiction. Your best bet is to check with a local legal aid or tenant's rights organization to see if it's allowed in your particular location. In some places, the situation you've mentioned is perfectly fine; in others, anything above the first month's rent is considered a security deposit (regardless of what the rental agreement calls It) and is subject to restrictions on "reasonable" security deposit amounts. In practice, it may not matter much. California, for example, allows landlords renting an unfurnished property to collect a security deposit of two months' rent, but not more than that, no matter what it's called: security deposit, last month's rent, pet deposit, key fee, cleaning fee, all of these are regarded by the state as a security deposit and cannot total more than two months' rent (with the exception that the landlord may charge a "screening fee"; the amount may not be more than the landlord's actual out-of-pocket expenses, such as obtaining a credit report, and is subject to a statutory maximum dollar limit as well -- this is NOT part of the security deposit). So, that puts you on the hook for about $50, plus first month's rent, plus two months' rent equivalent as a security deposit, maximum; a total of just over 3 months' rent. In contrast, Massachusetts allows landlords to collect first month's rent, last month's rent, and a security deposit and treats them all separately ... but limits the security deposit to one month's rent instead. So you'd still have to come up with three months' rent (plus the cost of a new lock and key, which MA law also explicitly allows) to move in, it would just be broken down slightly differently.
