I even do a pre-move-out inspection just to get an idea of what work will be needed, and to review the move-out requirements such as needing receipt for Professional carpet cleaning, all trash removed from the PROPERTY (not left at curb) and I ensure they are aware of the Holdover rate and that there will be a charge for my time if I show up at the move-out and they are not ready.It is a good idea to review all leases for their end date, and schedule an inspection of the property about 60 days ahead of that so you can determine IF you want to renew them, and at what rate.

They cut the grass, clean out the trash, sometimes quickly paint the front (front only) and then sell the property as a handyman's special.

Bernards, I'm planning on letting the tenants know that the pet deposit and cleaning deposit will be non refundable.

Is the house cleaned out after the death?

She's entertaining a $170K option purchase offer.She's willing to enter into separate master lease with sublet rights for $600/month.The property seriously needs cleaned up and could use a coat of paint on the exterior, but is otherwise in halfway decent shape and very structurally sound.After cleanup and residential rents, FMV should be $220K.

I am the President of a cleaning company and I thought this would be a great site to get some information.

Of course, the units have to be cleaned up.

That gives me a couple of weeks to clean, paint, carpet, and get the property ready to be rented.In the summer of 2006, it was common to have rentals stay vacant 3 or 4 months (or even longer).

The basements walls were covered with black mold and she was trying to clean it up with stuff that she bought at the Dollar Store.

Tenants rarely follow recommendations for cleaning, and as a result will use abrasive powders or scratch pads which will reduce the life of the surface.
