Are these cleanliness ratings a guarantee that a unit will be spotless when I move in?

No. Ratings reflect renter experiences over time. The current condition can vary by unit, turnover timing, and building staffing, so it’s important to ask management about move-in cleaning and recent maintenance.

What should I ask the building about cleanliness before applying?

Ask about cleaning standards for common areas, pest-prevention processes, how issues are logged and resolved, and expected timelines for follow-ups after a complaint.

Do I need to confirm fees and move-in costs even if a building looks good for cleanliness?

Yes. Cleanliness ratings don’t cover pricing details. Review the lease carefully and confirm the full monthly cost and any one-time items (like deposits or other required fees) in addition to the asking rent.

How should I use the tenant feedback when it comes to cleanliness?

Use it as a starting point, looking for patterns (for example, whether complaints repeat about the same areas). Then ask for specifics and current procedures directly from the building.
