Has anyone had a renter who left house dirty?
We "inherited" a tenant when we bought our house. They had paid $500 damage deposit but no cleaning fee. They paid their rent on time and asked to rent it again next year, They departed and I went over with 2 other people to clean. They hadn't cleaned anything for the 3 months they were there. It took 3 of us 6 hours to clean the place. I would like to write them a check for $400, keeping out $100 for cleaning, and return the $400 to them in hopes they get the message that they aren't wanted for Jan, Feb, and March 2015. My husband doesn't want me to do that because he thinks that it's the norm rather than the exception. Is this so?
