Should i deduct cleaning charges
So essentially i own a 3bhk ..i originally brought it for my mom and had it renovated ..it was a resale flat as its near by for all shops , metro bus station in walking distance and all . My mom refused to move as the watchmen was drunkard wen she came to visit after renovations she stays alone so i understood and immediately gave to rent . The problem is during summer the water shortage issue came which is not common in that area but this year it was worse . So the apartment maintenance people brought water tankers to supplement but apparently the pressure wasn't good due to which tenants weren't able to use their washing machine. They asked if they will vacate in may without any prior intimation due to this issue i agreed . But unfortunately they weren't able to get any other house during that time . Now they called and want to vacate and its already 5 days of the new month . So i refused to return this month's rent in advance . As i can't find a new tenant this urgent . The water issue is resolved more or less. Now I am not sure if i should deduct any cleaning charges i understand their discomfort but honestly the issue was out of my hand to solve . I have to again spend to deep clean house and put iit for rent..but they will vacate during middle of month . So they want me to consider returning 3/4 of rent .
