If I decide I don't want to rent a place, can they keep my deposit?

Make sure you are always reading before you sign anything, make sure you fully understand it.. AND always get a copy. If you have only applied you’ve likely paid an application fee and that is a cost you are going to eat depending on the fine print of that application process. Depending on when and if you’ve signed the lease and what the terms of that lease says, you may be able to get back the deposits.
