When it comes to end of lease cleaning in Sydney, many tenants are surprised by how detailed real estate agents can be during the final inspection. At Goldenshine Facility Services, we’ve helped hundreds of tenants and property owners prepare for these inspections with confidence. Understanding what agents look for can help you secure your full bond refund and leave a great impression.
1. Cleanliness and Hygiene Standards
Real estate agents expect the property to look exactly as it did when you moved in—clean, fresh, and damage-free. Common areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces are closely inspected for grease, dust, stains, and grime. Agents pay particular attention to ovens, range hoods, tiles, mirrors, windows, and carpets, ensuring they’re spotless and odour-free.
2. Damage vs Wear and Tear
Agents distinguish between normal wear and tear and tenant-caused damage. While minor scuff marks may be acceptable, issues like wall dents, broken fittings, or carpet burns can lead to deductions from your bond. Professional end of lease cleaners, like our team at Goldenshine Facility Services, help spot and address these issues before inspection day.
3. Exterior and Outdoor Areas
If you’re vacating a house or townhouse, the inspection doesn’t stop inside. Real estate agents also check balconies, patios, driveways, and gardens for cleanliness. Cobwebs, leaves, and rubbish can easily affect the agent’s report, so a thorough outdoor clean is just as important as the interior.
4. Attention to Detail
Agents use detailed checklists to ensure no corner is overlooked. They often check skirting boards, light switches, blinds, and air vents — small details that many tenants forget. Hiring professionals ensures that every detail meets inspection standards and increases your chance of getting your full bond back.
