Security Deposit and Cleaning
Hello everyone- My tenant has moved out and the place smells. Neighbors have reported seeing the tenant’s guest smoking so this is the reason for the odor. My tenant attempted to disguise the odor with really smelly deodorizer. I will definitely need to find a way to get this terrible smell out of the carpet and interior. Any ideas on what I can do? Will steam cleaning the carpets help? Any other ideas? Finally, can I deduct this cost from the security deposit? By the way, I am in California. Thank you in advance all!
