请问坛里的地主前辈们, 我发现有些州要求 security deposit 需要存在特定账户, 比如北卡:
Storing Deposits
Landlords in North Carolina have two options for storing security deposits:
- Trust accounts: The account must be in a licensed and insured bank or financial institution located in North Carolina.
- Bonds: Landlords can post a bond for the amount of the security deposit if it is issued by an insurance company with a business license in North Carolina. They are then to keep such security deposits in a trust account outside of the state.
Within 30 days of receiving a security deposit, landlords must notify tenants of the name and address of the bank or financial institution where the deposit is being held or the insurance company that posted the bond
这个要求需要严格遵守吗?存在自己的银行账户可以吗?什么是TRUST account 呢? 第二条是什么意思呢?新手上路,问题比较多,请多包涵。
