The rental sector, specifically in London and the SEast of the UK is now beginning to bounce back now that we are recovering from the recession.
The demand for end of tenancy cleaning many years before the credit crunch was very high, many cleaning companies enjoyed nice profits at that time.
A few years before the recession really started to bite, developers couldn't build apartments fast enough. The banks were throwing their money at investors so the private investor could then strike a deal with the developer and in most cases buy multiple flats.
Where ever you are in the world, the damage caused by the reckless banks was felt by all of us. Let's hope the credit crunch never happens again.

The main difference is knowing what products to use and understanding how an Inventory check out works and what the Inventory clerk looks for.
The majority of Inventory clerks, I think are far too anal. Depending on the Inventory check out compiled by the clerk can mean the difference between the tenant receiving all their deposit or only some of their deposit.
I think that some Inventory clerks forget this and do not realise how many problems they can actually create.
The best example is carpet cleaning, since the clerks are not professional carpet cleaners how do they know what stains in the carpet can be removed.
Typically nearly all clerks will not acknowledge a carpet has been professionally cleaned if they see any stains or spots on the carpet.
As with most check outs the tenant loses and the landlord gains.
