Question
Is it permissible to clean the house for purposes after the Nine Days (such as leaving the house after cleaning and returning after Tisha B'Av)? And if it is forbidden, would it be allowed in a case where there is no other time (such as wanting to leave the house in the middle of the Nine Days, and after Tisha B'Av, other people who want a clean house will arrive)?

Permissible
