End Of Lease Cleaning


End of Tenancy agreement for Tenants is always a nervous time; this is because there is a clause in the entry and exit report that states that your building must be returned in the original state. Immediately these documents are signed, it is now your obligation to ensure that you leave the property tidy.


Daily maintenance of the property before the end of lease date will make it easier for the professional cleaning company that will give the property a final clean.

You must ensure that the cleaning company is registered and experience to carry out such task. The real-estate agent will demand receipt of the clean and that is the reason the company must be registered and insure as well. Also, if your property is damaged during the cleaning process, if the company has insurance, then you don’t need to worry.


Bond cleaning which is commonly referred to as end of lease cleaning is not for the faint hearted. Bond Cleaning is the most detailed form of cleaning and that is why trained professionals do this task. If you hire inexperienced cleaners, you will likely lose your bond money. It requires eyes for details and a full checklist that must be followed to ensure that all boxes are ticked. The compliance level of cleaning cannot be compromised and the leasing agent are very strict as they don’t want to rent out apartments that are still dirty as that is not professional.


Some real-estate agents can help you organize the bond cleaning of your property. You many pay more for this service but you will likely get your bond back as it is now the responsibility of the agent to ensure that the property is cleaned to the required standard. It is always better to work with the property managers and then you will not be unnecessarily stressed as it is already hard enough trying to organize moving to a new apartment.


If you still choose to organize the bond cleaning yourself, ensure that cleaning company carrying out the bond clean have clear warranty in place. Some of the bond warranty is vague as there are no concrete statements or clause that states when they will return to clean your property. Asked the cleaning company when exactly they will be returning to re-clean the property if the renting agency complains or the cleaning is simply below standard..

At the end of the clean, the property manager will conduct an inspection of the property. If the property passes the inspection, the agent will return your bond funds back tie you.
