When I had rental property, I bought one of those Bissel (Sp. ?) carpet cleaners from Costco, and felt I could do as good or better job as a commercial outfit. It took my time and sometimes I would have it done commercially. When a place was empty, it was pretty easy for me to get in there & do it if I had time. I used Folex (Sp. ? again) as my cleaning agent, and it seemed to do a better job than dedicated cleaners. +1 on not over wetting the carpet, and I would always rinsed the carpet two times. I discovered if you rinsed it out well, it stayed cleaner longer because you got more of the cleaning residue out.
