谢谢柠檬！ 我google了holding deposit，不确定加州是否合法，

比如这个网站说是不合法：https://www.tobenerlaw.com/what-landlords-do-not-want-you-to-know-before-you-sign-your-lease/#:~:text=5.,states%20that%20it%20is%20nonrefundable.

“”

之前记得老朽说每次多收200左右当作holding deposit，我想请问下是否有关于holding deposit的agreement可以参考的？我的经纪说他们也没有holding deposit agreement之类的，她说用合同里的early termination 条款即可，所以我有点糊涂了。

谢谢！
