The lease doesn't specify anything about bug treatment or whose responsibility it is to treat for them.

I've been away from BP for the past two months, after my father passed away from Cancer the last week of October, one week prior to my 40th birthday. 

Between the inspection ($595), encapsulation paint and cleaning ($1,900), air duct vapor treatment ($700), and another inspection to receive certification ($250), I'm wondering if all of this was necessary. 

We use a shockwave treatment to penetrate the surface and kill itball.

For example, if this property was next door to a brand new sewage treatment plant, the smell alone might make the property unrentable.

If you're not breaking up fights, buying beds every other month, getting bedbug treatments every other week, etc., then it may not be so bad.

@John O'Sullivan, TIC refers to both a way of owning real estate (tenants in common) and a specific passive fractional ownership syndicated product that is set up so it looks acts and feels like a LP but qualifies for 1031 treatment.  

It's a little messy, especially when last year he got cancer and we were sure if he was going to make it through the treatments.

There are multiple considerations, asset protection and tax treatment.

As an example, in one duplex unit, I got a $70 rent increase and a two year lease commitment in exchange for adding a chain link fence 25x30 which only cost $850 to have installed, you have tax treatment options for depreciation or expense on it,  and it should last a long time.
