7.If You Withdraw Before Approval. You and any co-applicants may not withdraw your Application or the application deposit. If, before signing the Lease Contract, you or any co-applicant withdraws an Application or notifies us that you’ve changed your mind about renting the dwelling unit, we’ll be entitled to retain all application deposits as liquidated damages, and the parties will then have no further obligation to each other.
