If you paid a non-refundable cleaning fee, then, no.
If you did not pay a non-refundable cleaning fee, then the landlord can charge you for cleaning of the apartment if it was left not as clean as when you moved in. Yes, Landlords are entitled to have the property returned in the same state as you got it. Always offer to pay towards it and remind them they can claim it against income. Remember - it is getting harder to get property and Landlord references are key!

If the tenant made it dirty, he should clean it. If the tenant moves out and leaves it dirty it should be charged against his cle aning deposit. Anything else needs to be spelled out in the rental agreement.
The appropriate amount to charge for an additional tenant in a rental property is typically determined by the landlord and should be outlined in the lease agreement. This amount can vary depending on factors such as the local rental market, the size of the property, and any additional costs incurred by the landlord due to the extra tenant. It is important for both parties to agree on this amount before the tenant moves in.
Not while he's holding the security deposit and the tenant is still living on the property. If your landlord finds that the tenant has damaged the home of landlord can give him the opportunity to fix it, sue the tenant for such damage - even if the tenant is still living on the property - or begin the eviction proceedings for violating the terms of the lease with the proper notice asking the tenant to vacate the premises. If the tenant moves out because of the violation, the landlord may keep all or part of the security deposit he is holding.
In most states, if a lease term is for a fixed amount of time, such as a year, and the tenant breaks lease by moving out early, the landlord can sue for the amount of time it took for the landlord to get a new tenant or for lease to expire, whichever comes first. It is for a month-to-month tenancy, then the landlord has no grounds for suing for future rents.

Yes, it is appropriate for a Landlord to give a resident pointers on how to care for new carpet. It would also be appropriate to discuss care of a new oven or refrigerator. The investment is the landlord's and the tenant is expected to live in an apartment without damaging it (except for standard wear and tear). We have rental units and have put new carpet in for residents who have lived in our building a long time, we also have painted for tenants, replaced refrigerators, stoves, heating units. All of these at no charge to the tenant. When a long-term tenant moves out, we have a whole remodel to accomplish in order to re-rent and get good tenants who want things nice and are likely to keep them nice. - A Landlord's point of view.
Yes The rent is due until the day tenant returns keys and moves out with all their belongings. If you mean a last-month-rent deposit, then yes, the landlord can ask for one, and, if the tenant doesn't want to give one, the landlord can refuse to rent to them. It's always better (for everyone) to have the agreement in writing.
