Regards, ClarkI'm curious, @Zhenyang Jin, with a DSCR at 1.30x, what are you total operating expenses relative to your EGI (Rent after vacancy expenes)? 

You can simply request a separate check for the $100 increase to bring the total deposit in line with the new rent amount.

Typically whatever the material cost is double that to get the price for total.

The letter also states the total non-rent items currently owed by the tenant, such as accumulated late fees or repair charges.Also very important, the tenant states they have no unresolved issues with their current landlord, except as listed in a space provided, and they have no current plans to cancel their lease under the Service Members Civil Relief Act or for any other reason. 

You obviously won't find anything ifor 750/m P/I payment in the area and you won't even find rent for double that amount if you want to keep renting.

This totally would have been a deal breaker had I known before signing up, but now I'm too far into it to turn back, so I need to make something work.  

Also offers contingency based collection but price was not obvious. - AOA Debt Reporting Service: letter sent w 120 days to pay (with credit bureau reporting) after which it rolls over contingency plan with collection agency getting 38%.I know I would not want the task for what they charge.
