Be sure to document any damage findings or maintenance needs (HVAC filter changes, leaking toilets, etc) since this would be legally a unit inspection versus a communication concern.

I'd say it works out to $20 an hour for them.It can, of course, vary wildly - I've spent $250 to deep clean just a kitchen, and I've spent $800 to trash out a backyard.This doesn't include any repairs necessary - painting touch ups, replacing damaged fixtures, landscaping, etc. 

So when they get wasted & break stuff in your property it's pretty darn easy to get the damage paid for.

I can certainly see how this will fall under the tenant's insurance if they caused the damage. 

Another one I haven't noticed in other PMs is they keep any pet fee they charge but will fix up to $1,000 of pet damage.

You will give her 1/30 water credit towards next month's rent, since it was obvious that you where unable to fix it and the 'damages' caused from the time they where reported until the time they where fixed.

@Adam Higginbotham200k should be sufficientHere are more detailed map views of the places you listed (the colors correspond to the areas risk score, which is a composite metric derived from eight different risk indicators)Gresham ParkGrove ParkDecaturSouth Atlanta Simply put, the better the grade the fewer risks you will encounter (Vacancy, Property Damage, Non-Paying Tenants, etc...) 

Security deposits are usually strictly regulated, so know your landlord/tenant laws before discussing the deposit as that can usually come back to bite you later unless you can prove they owe that in damages or past rent.   

My manager has been charging a $250 flat non refundable pet fee, which seems sort of useless, in fact may even make a tenant feel like they've "paid in advance for any damage, so why be astute about animal's behavior?"
