Just doing some reading and came across this, maybe with the extra money in rents they are getting, maybe they will call for more cleaning. A clean property helps attract tenants is how i would sell to the managers

A rebounding local economy is causing a boom in North Texas apartment renting, analysts at MPF Research report. Net apartment leasing in Dallas-Fort Worth apartments topped 9,400 units in this year's April-through-June period. Since the first of the year, MPF researchers add, apartment occupancy in the D-FW area has increased by more than 15,000 units -- the best performance in five years. Greg Willett, MPF Research vice president, remarks, "New households are being created at a pretty rapid pace, so apartment demand is gaining considerable momentum. Some of the people who had taken roommates are moving out on their own, and some people who had been renting single-family homes and condos are coming back to apartments." In addition, young renters who had moved in with their parents when the economy tanked may now be venturing out on their own again. A year earlier, there were concerns about a considerable oversupply of North Texas apartments. D-FW continues to lead the nation in apartment construction, with nearly 7,000 new rental units in the pipeline. Fortunately, a surge in demand has made for a more upbeat outlook. There is even talk of an apartment shortage in some areas of the metro area possibly within a couple of years.[/FONT]
