Shouldn’t be a issue since landlords never lie to keep deposits right?

    As someone who is likely going to be stuck renting for the foreseeable future, I agree. I’ll happily pay my deposit to some sort of escrow that the landlord has zero access to until it’s proven by a neutral third party, with no financial interest in the property, who has seen the property before and after renting.

      Who’s going to pay this neutral third party to come see the property twice and allocate the deposit between the tenant and landlord?
