RepairsThen run for the hills.In Bridgeport, Connecticut and many North East regions we also include Snow Removal and Pest control.Explore all markets but do your research, as to where net migration and jobs are heading.Let me know if you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a message. - Craig

@Shivani KumarLet’s say they have to get a pest control company to do something and it’s a third party company - they will charge 5% which is very common as they have management to bill and coordinate that activityMany places I see this 10-15%I would make sure to check indemnifications clause with an attorney

In a City where things like Pests, particularly Bed Bugs, etc. are common, I believe what we offer is peace of mind to a tenant that is normally very busy in their professional lives.I don't think this particular strategy works in all neighborhoods generally because you won't get the best tenants who are concerned about the building as we are in lower than "A" or "B" Class neighborhoods and/or where the Vacancy rates are higher than our average of 5%.

Try telling her, next time.. she can call a AC Man and pay for an inspection.. or a Roofer and Pay for an inspection... or hire a Pest Control Company... or treat it herself.. and provide her with a website to purchase quality products.. like DoYourOwnPestControl.com ...

I can't imagine buying a mold infested building though.

I have a property that I can’t prove a tenant brought in a roach infestation.

Are you considering things like maintenance, cap ex, pest control, lawn care, toiletry, etc.

They are suing for lose toilet, no screen on a window, non-working outlet in bathroom, pests, hall light not working (light bulb needed to be replaced) and non-functioning smoke alarm (they never replaced the batteries).

For every home I've ever bought, I've had a pest, property, roof, and fireplace inspection performed.Once the reports are returned, you can determine if you are ok with the condition (proceed with closing), not ok (exercise your contingency clause and exit the deal), or whether you want to negotiate certain items with the seller to have them fix and/or have them lower the price/give you a credit at closing to compensate you for doing the work.

I have one tenant keep reporting bed bugs, approximately every 2 months.The first time, we sent pest control company, the company found there are few bed bugs in the sofa and did the spray.
