Looking for advice on:
1) Rental agreement
2) Expectations? Like what is a typical expectation for the landlord and the renter
3) How to work the income for tax purposes
4) How to figure out what is a good amount to ask for
5) What is typical to do for the deposit?
I am a landlord, and own multiple rentals.

Rental agreement-make sure you take into consideration local laws and regulations.
Expectations-spell them out in the lease.
Tax purposes-I pay someone lol.
Amount-look in the paper and see what comp rentals are going for.
Deposit-not sure what you are asking, but we get 1st and last months rent for security deposits.
