landlord refusing to take property back
My landlord inspected the property at the end of the tenancy, declared that it needed cleaning still and is now saying I have to keep paying rent until it has been cleaned by a professional.
This seems odd. Can a landlord extend a rental period after it's termination solely due to the fact that in their opinion the property is not in the same state it was when it was rented? In the UK one might loose part of a deposit in this situation but would not be expected to pay rent until such time as a suitable cleaner was found.
This all seems highly dubious to me and the landlord is, in my experience, far from honest.
