Do sellers have to deep clean before closing?

That depends on the contract and local expectations. Practically, many sellers choose move-out cleaning so the home feels ready for the buyer walkthrough.

Is broom clean enough for a final walkthrough?

Sometimes, but broom clean should still mean personal items and trash are gone and the home does not feel neglected.

When should a seller schedule move-out cleaning?

Usually after movers leave and before the final walkthrough, with utilities and access still available.
