Examples would be an accountant or attorney or web designer or other profession that works from home.I also don't allow tenants to make alterations to my property without my permission.

Every state has a notice requirement for landlords to enter a tenant's unit - with our without his permission - after giving the required notice.

In my example you asked permission.

A few examples... from $1,500,000 fine for a guy who took off with several thousand $ in earnest money, to $5,000 fine for not presenting an offer, to $250,000 fine for advertising other's listings w/o permission...

You have no way to show the home without the seller's permission and the seller is unlikely to give you the keys to show the place.

To stay more than 7 days in a calendar year requires our permission and our penalty is high enough that it would be cheaper to rent a hotel room (I think it was $200/night for each person).We want the people staying in our LTR to be on the lease and approved.  

Would it be difficult to obtain permission for higher rent increases?

I don't ask permission: I might consider begging forgiveness. 

Ill get to this later.Then they said well access so-and-so website and give permission to view your credit report so you don't get a hit on your credit rating (source is owned by a "company man").

Under this amount and no permission is needed; the amount of such will be deducted from the rent you receive.
