Tips for renters: Take detailed notes and photos when you move in. If you break something fix it right away. When leaving use a well known cleaning company with references and a damage deposit guarantee.
Tips for landlords: At the start provide the renter with a list of all existing defects for them to add to and sign. If the renter later reports new issues respond and fix promptly. Understand what normal wear and tear means. Also realise that if you built your rental property with the cheapest kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring possible these wear out quicker. Don’t be a dick.
