Only way I would be landlord today:

2 month's rent as security deposit. Lease to run month to month with thirty days prior written notice to vacate by either party.

Good idea but when the government tells you that you can’t evict for non- payment, your tenants may just stop paying you like many have already. That two months security deposit money runs out awfully fast —-

2 months security deposit is good but month to month isn’t good for you. Too much vacancy and too much hassle. I charge 1 to 2 months security deposit depending on credit score and job history. 720+ credit with great job history will be one month. 560 credit with so job history will be first months rent + 2 months security deposit if I even lease to you at all.
