Forum / Leasing Issues / Carpet cleaning on move-out tenants responsibility?
Do other landlords out there charge a tenant for carpet cleaning when they move out?

RE: Carpet cleaning on move-out tenants responsibility?
Build it in your rental agreement that carpets are to be clean on move out - or "like kind condition" and have pictures of move-in conditions. <br><br> If a tenant has been a long term tenant, the carpet can become a little bit dirty or deteriorated and that becomes part of wear and tear and I don't charge for that. If the tenant is a short term tenant, and they leave it dirty or heavily used, then I would charge the cleaning.

That sounds quite okay. Tenants may have children and all that may spoil Your carpet and so for short term You can't pay it for everyone. http://www.naturalhomerugs.com
