Hello everyone,I got a quick question for you those of you out there who may have dealt with a bug infestation roach or bedbug problem in the past...My question is who should pay for pest control me or the renter?

I paid a pest control company $600 to perform a "Roach cleanout" to treat all the units with the understanding that they would eliminate the current infestation in the whole building. 2 months go by and there are still German roaches in the source unit.The service is still under warranty and I am asking them to come back and reapply.

. ; House is now infested with roaches and I will have to call in Truly Nolen for treatment.

Im wary about walking unknowingly into shark infested waters.

If they are having issues with hot water, that would be a daily frustration, and it's also an item mentioned in the rent escrow doc as a valid issue.Some of the water leak stuff, it is in your interest as a landlord/asset owner to fix ASAP, as the cost of water damage repairs goes up the longer it's neglected.The other thing is that they seem to be making a point that they have encountered numerous rodents and trying to smear your place as rat-infested, perhaps to try to bias the judge against you, perhaps because it's their reality. 

@Stephanie LoYour whole post reads like an episode of Judge Judy.So you have these people living in a rat infested garage paying you $300 a month?

You could request monthly check inspections, just to verify it's not infested by pests and they are taking care of the inside.   

Tenant wants to break the lease early and states she's called an exterminator and he or she has indicated a prior infestation had once been there, but no live infestations are there. 9.

The tenants will vacate the premises no later than September 30, 2012 by end of final walk through. v The tenants waive their right to pro-rated rent reimbursementv The tenants waive their right to reimbursement of property damage to personal belongings caused by rodent infestation and to relocation expenses.It is expected that the tenants deposit will be refunded in full, due to zero damage beyond normal wear and tear to the property.

Say the entire building is infested with termites and you and your inspectors miss it (just an example) total loss.
