Helps in 3 ways. Keeps your place nice and tidy and wont be a giant mess to clean up once the tenant leaves, you can have the cleaner as your regular inspection person tell her to notify you if any issues, and when perspective tenants come by and you let them know a cleaner has regular access to the unit, it keeps the shadier tenants from renting.

is this a normal thing? as a renter, if somebody did that, i would not rent from that person.
for one, the rent would be higher than the average in the area due to the tacked on cleaning fees.
it would also make me think that the landlord is strict and will probably visit the unit frequently.
a wild guess but i think it will attract shadier tenants who need a place to stay regardless of invasive provisions.
