Per the lease, tenants are required to have the property professionally cleaned before moving out. Sounds simple enough.
But one tenant tried to finesse the system by submitting an invoice from their “cleaning company.” And by company, we mean their last name slapped onto a Word doc with a half-hearted “LLC” tacked on for flair.
A quick check with the state? No such business exists. And that DIY invoice? Let’s just say it didn’t scream professional—it barely whispered it.
Nice try, but no dice. We’re always happy to coordinate legit cleaning help at the end of a tenancy, but fabricating companies to skip the bill? That’s not the kind of sparkle we’re looking for.
Cleaner lies still leave a mess.
