He went on to explain that homeowners should then be taking monthly rent after the deposit so as to give people who rent some rest from the heavy financial burden.

The actor added that should a tenant default in paying his or her rent for a particular month, the homeowner can deduct that amount from the security deposit.

Dumelo's tweet read:

"Rent solution:Let landlords take 5 mths deposit first.Then they can receive mthly rent from the tenant. If a’thng happens to the property due to the fault of the tenant, they use part of the deposit to fix it. If the tenant misses one mthly payment, they deduct from the deposit."
