💡 4 Cleaning musts every Property Owner should look at 🏢 

One of the main concerns of being a landlord is pitching the property to new tenants. It is that first impression that determines the signing of the lease. 

Additionally, while people have differences in terms of preferences, every tenant desires the living space to be healthy and clean. 

Check out these four things you should be aware of to ensure the cleanliness of your building and impress your potential (and current) tenants.

1. Carpet deep-cleaning
 
Carpets require daily care that includes vacuuming and spot cleaning. Periodic maintenance is not just limited to hot water extraction, it should combine different methods depending on carpets in place, overall condition of surfaces, and types of stains that carpets could have. 
 
Also, include restorative cleaning in your maintenance program. An adequately carried out cleaning program will bring back the appearance of your carpet. 

2. Periodic Disinfection 
 
While cleaning with soap or detergent products reduces germs on surfaces, disinfecting using U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s List N products, kills any remaining ones, which further reduces any risk of spreading infections.
 
3. Dust Window Blinds
 
Easy to forget, but there are big collectors of dust and debris. While dusting them, close the blinds on one side and wipe the dust away from top to bottom using a microfiber cloth. Then repeat the process on the opposite side.

4. Replace Air Filters
 
Filters of an HVAC will tend to get used year-round. So you might need to replace them once every three months. However, if tenants have allergies or pets, replacement should be more frequent -every 45 to 60 days. 
 
Not only will it make your property’s circulation improve, but it also will make the HVAC more efficient in terms of energy. 

Ensuring your property neatness not only will help you to attract and retain new and current tenants but will also protect your investment, as you provide your occupants with a safer, healthier, and more pleasant experience.
