Using security deposit?
This is my first multi family property and one of the tenants are moving out early. I found another tenants but I am unsure if i could use security deposit (from the tenants who are moving out) to pay for deep cleaning service for next move in tenants. Is it only ok to use it when the unit is filthy dirty and damaged? They told me they will patch up all the holes they made and paint over and clean up before they move out. If the unit is clean and they do their part, I am not allowed to charge for the cleaning I am guessing? Please share your experiences and knowledge. Thank you!
