This is why I treat it like a rental. When I was renting my deposit was 10 days of rent and I didn’t expect to get it back because I knew from someone else leaving that the landlord was a wanker.
I started homebrewing when I lived there, had a batch explode and splatter honey water all across the room. I quickly learnt to avoid the patches of carpet that were sticky. Knowing that the landlord wouldn’t repay the deposit without me taking him to court anyway, I didn’t bother cleaning it up.

I’ve been in the same place for over a decade, the deposit I’d like back but the place is kinda infamous for nickle and dime issues to keep as much as possible. Also the new management company have been sticklers for keeping things “clean” without saying what the standard is. I wipe up when I make a mess, sweep and mop when it’s worth my time. Still, they made a stink that I wasn’t perfect. So now I pour oil down the kitchen sink.
