Unless they use a professional cleaning service when the tenants do not do a sufficient job, the charge for this shouldn't be very high.You say "My family and I cleaned this place day and night for days" - I really, really, really hope this is an exaggeration.  2-4 people cleaning for 16 hours a day for 2 days would indicate that this is either a humongous house, you really trashed the place for years and had a lot to clean or you're really bad cleaners.  

I agree that you can't always rely on a tenant's word to be true - they will sometimes take advantage, exaggerate or omit facts if it suits them.

Basically, if you're just hearing one side of the story, you dont' know if there is exaggeration.

I signed up for one of his investment partner deals about 7 years ago and he scammed me for $7,500. it was a contract to invest money in a gold buying store where he promised a nice residual income and profit, however these #s were exaggerated and when it came down to it he gave me the run around to eventually ignoring my emails, calls and texts.  

That being said, if you aren't exaggerating, and there really is poop in your house.

I think the media is wildly exaggerating the rental trends in SF.

Either the couple is purposely doing something at 1 and 2am to wake her up every night or the single lady is exaggerating or making it up.

Most of them won, a few lost very little.The risk of being sued and losing is dramatically exaggerated.

Obviously that must be an exaggeration, but many of my friends are fighting them and I've heard a few stories of chewed up wires in vehicles because the rats are attracted to a certain type of wire sheathing that some auto manufacturers use.

You could make a movie of his life and people would think it's exaggerated.
