@Victor I.

It just gives your tenant some ammunition.We have alot of "gun slingers" on this thread claiming that they will stick to some moral victory and not fix the property. 

But for the area the average rent came out to be 2600 to 2700 with some outliers of 3000 I don't think its worth it either even with the wrong amounts of math  the deal still yield a negative ROI.Thanks Victor I will call a local agent to get better numbers for a better exterminate.  

@Kelly Stevens if you approach your agent as a serious investor with proof of funds (cash statements, pre-approval for lending, or a viable LOC), a solid idea as to what your looking for (SFR, MFR, Etc) and a path forward regarding a timeline they shouldn’t be upset.

Of course if I just didn't understand his post then I'm happy to back off any criticism of the buyer/OP cody not talking about you.. talking about the guy who posted.. he seems to be upset. 

The OP has an upset tenant and I’m smart enough to “Listen” to my tenants point of view.

I've gotten to the point where if there is damage, it's just a cost of doing business and it does not upset me. 

Given the lease does not stipulate a charge, I don't think a judge would get upset with you for passing on the costs they incurred by not complying with the payment provision.  

They have been with us since 2010 and are upset they are getting a 30 dollar increase.

People are upset whenever their apple cart is tipped over, no matter how much logical sense it makes, and being mad is a typical response.
