Got a couple of important gatherings I am attending - making sure I am locked in and ready for that. 

I've gathered six months of strong bank statements and have a strong personal FICO.

If these numbers are accurate, would pursuing it be too aggressive given the small delta between the new potential monthly payment and current rent?  

Is there a screening service that is actually accurate that covers background checks thoroughly and can also check if there have been any evictions, etc?   

The same agent is still holding the listing, proving the original advice was deeply flawed.A listing that sits for two years with a major price correction carries a stigma that often hurts the final sale price more than a quick, accurate initial price ever would.This example is a powerful reminder that many realtors are disconnected from accurate market values and prioritize winning the listing over serving the seller's best interest.What is the logical next step for this seller, and what responsibility should the initial agent bear for the wasted time and lost equity?

I would like to gather as much information as I study markets, properties, understand how to build a team (contractors, finance and maintenance).

Gathering collective wisdom and experience along the way. 

It tends to over predict from what I have gathered while looking at its analysis on my personal STR properties.

The fastest way to get the most accurate quote will be to call local insurance agents, and in my experience an independent insurance agents tend to have more experience insuring STRs. 

It's more accurate than doctors in diagnosing an illness, you have companies like Anduril Industries founded by Luckey Palmer that are today's Skynet because they have a more perfect an accurate defense protocol than human pilots, plus no one is harmed in the marking unless you're the enemy.
