Seller and sellers agent stated the house had been professionally clean. It was not. And it was filthy.
TLDR: sellers agent made a big about the house being professionally cleaned before the sellers left. This included carpet cleaning. The house was filthy when we arrived. Are they obligated to pay for it be done since we were told it would be?
There was absolutely no way the house was cleaned period. Both ovens were awful - something had boiled over/exploded all over the inside. The kitchen had dried food stuck to counters and spilled down the front of the cabinet. Big hair balls. Dust everywhere - thick layers of dust on built ins.
The carpet very clearly had not been cleaned either. It looked dingy. My dog got sick and I had to use the spot bot. The water it sucked up was black.
The sellers were not the most lovely people anyway. Before we knew they were terrible, we agreed to a leaseback. We did keep the deposit of $500 to cover the cleaning costs. But it barely covers having a service clean the home. Since their agent informed us that these services took place, are they obligated to pay?
I did call the cleaning company they allegedly used. They had only quoted, not cleaned. So there’s that.
