If your goal is fat loss, then the 500-1000 under is good.
If you're still going for fat loss, but moving onto the Strength routines, you might shoot for 500 or even just 250 under maint. It's hard to get stronger if you're too hungry and weak (obviously).
The goal of the hypertrophy workouts is to grow muscle, so you should eat above maintenance. At least a little.
