Also, I did buy my home with a FHA loan as well, so I know I will need to refi out of it and get into a conventional loan.

My wife and I have very stable, well paying jobs in the Washington DC metro area, but we've made the decision we want to take charge of our financial futures instead of continually trading time for dollars like our families do. 

It may be a good thing to charge back to the tenants or to split the utilities, but that should not affect your analysis

Could always have it removed, then charge them fees to do it in the meantime...of course getting those hauling fees reimbursed is another story entirely

Add a cast iron or aluminum fence around the pool for safety and charge rent high enough to include a pool company to maintain...maybe, I do not have a rental with a pool (above is our pool) but I could see it being quite a plus if safe and easy for tenants.

The only thing I would take out is having people list their bank account number, I don't think you will have an applicant willing to give that info to you anyway.One other thing to consider, are you charging an application fee?

Moved for job and bought second house in Georgia conventional 5% May 2017. incomeMy salary income is $80,000 California rent income $2,850Can I count the boarder income of my primary SFH residence right now ($3,200)?

Not a hard money loan but a conventional renovation loan?

This particular company handles the purchase (my money), rehab, tenant screening, property management and I understand they charge 10% of the rent.

You can hire it done and charge it along with any storage fees when someone finally does come for the belongings.
