I am about to rent a house and it will be first time I've done so on my own. When I first saw the house, the carpets look to be in great shape and do not appear dirty, but should I go ahead and get them cleaned anyway?
I'm going to ask the landlord tonight when I sign the lease if he knows the last time they were shampooed, if ever. If they haven't been cleaned in a long time, should I ask him to do it, or would it be my responsibility to rent a Rug Doctor or something and do it myself if he doesn't think they need it or just won't do it?
