It should also be risk-based:If an applicant meets all of our screening requirements (i.e., good credit, income 3X rent, no evictions, stable employment, and good rental history), then we normally take a deposit equal to one month's rent (as a property manager, I'd prefer to take more because it gives us more breathing room if things go bad, but we have to take what the market will bear). 

For repairs, maintenance, service calls I would think charging a flat fee for the call plus an hourly rate and materials.

Dear BP,      I think it was BP Podcast #352 where Brandon mentioned he recorded his screen and send it to a VR to produce a 100+ page operation procedure.

Also if roof is flat or pitched add to maintenance costs.

I can' stress how important it is to have an awesome property manager on the ground to both screen and be responsible for bookings as well as deal with problems immediately as they arise.
