Just say you'd rather start fresh with your own tenants and you don't want to be tied in with a lease, and/or that you may want to refurbish the unit or just whatever.  

See what I mean about white being fresh and clean?

They will notice every tiny thing and forever view the unit as a unit that hasn't been maintained properly, and that the landlord is a slumlord and they will regularly complain about all kinds of stuff.Whereas, if you wait to show the unit when it's smelling like fresh paint and is all clean, they will have an impression that it's well-maintained and problem-free. 

If they see a unit that smells of fresh paint and it's clean, they won't see the faults. 

Place your own renters and start fresh.

A fresh coat of a nice color paint always cleans and freshens the place.

You should be able to get it $3ft installed.Make it clean, fresh, bright and inviting.

And I don’t think there is anywhere in the USA where the latter use of the word is happening with freshly defaulted renters. 

But now there's even more to the saga:Upon going to sanitize the basement, it was discovered that the FRESHLY SNAKED PIPES had fistfuls - literally - of baby wipes crammed in the pipe. 

Getting an exterminator every time a robin lands on my freshly watered lawn isn’t in the cards either.
