WOW, someone put too much sugar in Dion's coffee, LOL I spent years cleaning up these messes Dion as well as having attorneys who thought they knew what they were doing change their ways.

And other people aren't as clean as I am and don't help out much.

I never take the SD for any reason other than damages or cleaning, even to pay part of the ETF.

I just steam cleaned the carpet, touched up the paint and home looks like the way when i bought it new.

At the beginning of January during the screening process, we spoke with current landlord and he gave a very positive recommendation for this tenant - pays on time, very clean, kids are great - she's a good mom keeps them in line, sorry to see her go, etc.This evening I get a call from current landlord that tenant has not paid January rent and that he's just posted a quit notice for the nonpayment.

You are left with a clean lot with city connections.

Normally a contract will say that the seller is selling the property "free and clear of all liens and encumbrances"  In other words any back taxes mortgages etc get cleaned up at settlement from the SELLERS funds. 

All other stuff had to be cleaned and returned weeks later.We probably could have sued since it took them weeks to respond to us about the initial and resulting damage.

@Nicole Marshall get the windows squeeky clean, light sand if old finish is flaking off or oxidized, automotive spray primer and then automotive enamel spray paint.
