If you did that, combined with the fact that it sounds like the tenant paid the new increased amount when it was due, I personally wouldn’t be concerned at all about her unreasonable request and wouldn’t even consider reimbursing her for anything. 

Bet on 60 days to rent, if it happens quicker awesome, but 2 weeks in a sub-par  neighborhood isn't unreasonable.

IMHO it would be unreasonable to hold them accountable for a delay related to your paperwork.

I 100% think so,  it is nothing unusual, unreasonable ...weather an assistant, bird dogging, someone giving repair estimate, etc, weather paying them salary, or commission in the deal, ...even I too, want to hire someone to help me to be involved in an online auction process, and pay them at closing, ...Even Josh mentions here in this vid to strategize the purchase process with another, in different ways...https://www.youtube.com/watch?

As for price, that is all dependent on your location, but 2500 doesn't sound unreasonable.

Putting 10% down is not unreasonable at all and you seem to have developed a strategy that works well for you.

I think a $ 200 increase would be unreasonable and I don't think a judge would be ok with it, if they've been there for 30 years.I keep bringing up the judge, not to scare you, but to keep in mind, if you're forced to go through with the eviction.

I am being cautious but got tired of the city's runaround or unreasonable 'on hold' times.

I am a landlord in Ohio. 6 hours is not unreasonable, and not neglectful on your part.
