When and how do I pay the security deposit?
The payment of the security deposit is typically done before the check-in date. The exact timing may vary depending on the specific booking, so it is important to check the booking details for specific instructions.
The security deposit amount is usually specified in the booking details and listing and is usually equivalent to one or two months' rent. The security deposit is refundable at the end of the stay, provided that there is no damage to the property beyond normal wear and tear.
It is important to make sure that you understand the terms and conditions of the security deposit before making the payment. If you have any questions or concerns about the security deposit or the payment process, you can contact your landlord and/or refer to your rental agreement.
