It really depends on the apt. Some require first and last months rent, others just one some specific amt for a deposit. And some run specials, so the deposit is waived all together. You need to ask the leasing office to be sure.

Usually in large apartment complexes they only ask for 1st month, cleaning deposit, security deposit. But if you're renting from a landlord that say, owns several small apartments, they usually want 1st and last as well as the other deposits.

More than the particular apt, it depends on the current market conditions. I own 3 apartment buildings and our policy is generally to collect first and last months rent plus a security deposit. But, when vacancy rates get above 5% we start to drop that down, first to just 1/2 of the last months rent and then to forgetting the last month altogether.

When i used to rent, they would charge me the security deposit, and depending on your background history with renting, credit, and age, they would ask for the first months rent, and the pro-rated amount of the month that you were to finish out on the first. just as to prove that you had enough money to cover everthing.
