I primarily want to verify identity and criminal history.Since I can't run an application on the company, I usually charge a higher deposit of double or triple the rent or I will ask them to pay first, last, and deposit.I also try to negotiate a cleaning fee and use my professional cleaner after vacating. 

I am charging $925 per month but will probably bump the rent to $1100 in May How did you finance this deal?

If an outgoing tenant leaves a roach problem, we wanna call a pest control service ASAP and charge it to their security deposit. 

I don't begrudge an attorney charging a lot more if they provide service via education, etc., but a couple of grand to do a 30 minute filing seems a bit high. 

Any person violating this sections is guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be fined not less than the amount of the fee or charge he has sought or received or contracted for, and not more than ten times such amount, or imprisioned for not more than 30 days or both.

The renter will need to secure financing for the remaining purchase price on the home by whatever date you agree to.If the renter doesn't secure financing, then you can charge fees and extend it, or terminate the agreement and evict them.Rinse and repeat

The wanted me to use wood but luckily we "met in the middle" and I was able to use Composite which is a bit cheaper than wood.  

Hey here’s my take on it from buying some cheaper stuff out of state and getting semi- burned.  

It looks like you’re taking all expenses in properly, if the rent in here is the max you could charge then I’d say walk away.
