Quarterly Inspections - to what extent do you clean?

[ladybird11]

We usually go for the 'show home' look lol, kind of like a spring clean lol! Inside and outside

Usually they just look in the door - say that they've seen enough and leave! All that effort you would have thought I'd have learn't by now lol!

we have quarterly inspections too..bit of a change from our last real estate where we were lucky to have annual inspections! Lol.

I just do a 'normal' house clean- do bathroom/toilet, vaccuum and mop, tidy up Hayley's toys and have a go at weeding the garden. It's not spotless and I know it could be cleaner, but our agent is really lovely and she always comments how lovely the house looks so she's obviously quite happy with it! I think as long as it doesn't look like a pigsty and there are no holes in the walls etc then it should be fine..especially with quarterly inspections they can't expect you to go OTT 4 times a year cleaning the house, particularly when you have young children!

Jaycee we should have known is was coming as it was the 2nd house we rented through them and when we moved out of the first they tried to get us to pay for extra carpet cleaning because a stain that was listed on the entry inspection had "moved" once we had the carpets cleaned by their prefer carpet cleaner. Never ever again, every agent including the owner of the RE was just awful, very unprofessional as well.
