Her nose may be bleeding, but mine smells trouble. Offer the happy clause if you can-she's got mold on the mind now.

"Professional cleaning lady" you said. Does she work for a licensed and bonded cleaning company? If so, take this up with them, you've had a crappy job done and shouldn't pay. Or is it some one the manager knows and hired to do this. There's a difference in what everyone calls clean--ask my husband and ask me and you'll get 2 different answers.

Did the manager send you photos of the carpet and the apt.? I would say let this tenant out, and have the apt. detailed like a hotel room would be (better actually), then make a visit yourself to see if it meets your standards. And if not, fire your property manager.

1st, I would make sure the place had actually been cleaned - if so. I would let the person out of the lease. Things aren't going to get any better.

I am thinking the same thing. Was the place actually cleaned? Property managers have a way of hiring friends and relatives to perform services and then skim some. Has the landlord talked directly with the tenants? Has the landlord received copies of the invoices to see if the business actually exist. Has the landlord talked directly to the business owner?
