[quote=Anonymous]This is interesting as I was on the opposite end of this type of situation- landlord wanted us to wash the wood floors and apply a polish and steam clean the carpets. Our lease was really general, there weren't any details of what was expected. So we pushed back but landlord insisted that was what the previous tenants did when they moved out and therefore we should leave it in the same condition it was found. We didn't really understand what recourse we had to refuse since no details were spelled out in the lease, just that it should be clean when we vacated- no mention of "broom clean" or something more. We looked up rental laws for our town but no luck. We were stressed enough as it was and just hired cleaners. Tenants should be wary and ask questions when renting, most landlords I've had were fine but every now and then you can end up with a lemon.[/quote]
