deposit before signing the lease?

Is it OK if I asked the potential tenants to pay $300 deposit before we sign the lease this weekend ? The purpose is for them to hold the house and for me not to lose any other renters. I am in bay area. Thanks!

• 簽過合同之後，這點誠實金即被轉入押金部分。未搬入前所有的款項必須以準現金支付。 -Joseph758- ♂ (0 bytes) () 11/26/2012 postreply 14:01:33
