never checked
I rented my CYV for 4 years, never did credit checks or anything else. I required the full rent (1 month, 3 months, whatever the lease was) 45 days prior to the initial rent date, and the deposit was due when the lease was signed, sometimes 10-11 mos ahead of time. Very different rental market in a retirement community.
I only collected $500-600 for a deposit - if I was doing it again, I would collect at least $750, not part of the rent and refundable only after the end of the lease, when my cleaning person and/or caretaker could check for any damages.
Only had 1 problem in all that time - 2 single guys who rented for 6 weeks never cleaned - anything - I kept back some of their deposit for extra cleaning.
