And you must now prevent an infestation together-- with teamwork. 

I had bed bug issues before , it's the tenants liability until it migrated to another unit then it's landlord responsibility.Cost me over $1500 and 6 months of trial and error before I was able to get good at killing them 😔 Not sure if that's a good thing but there are many products some work better then others but one thing for sure is don't let it become an infestation it's a lot of work 

I have trial in Fairfax County this Friday, November 15th and my initial hearing was two Fridays ago, November 1st.Anyway, my situation/question is, I have three tenants living in a shared-living environment in one of my townhouses, the person I am attempting to evict is my newest tenant and moved in last May, he actually pays rent the 1st of every month, if not before that, so payment is not the issue but he has caused a fruit fly infestation and firehazard in his room/the house as a result of leaving food out and hoarding.

I'm 11 months into my first rental (triplex), and so far I've experienced:-2 evictions (inherited tenants)-a roach infestation-thousands of dollars in damage to one unit-likely more $ in damages to comeAm I deterred from buying more?

You can always modify an agreement as you go, but it might be better to describe the details to hold the deal together.Take the wood destroying insect inspection, mention as required here, it may be irrelevant, but a buyer won't be aware of infestation or damage.

You sound like you're probably headed for deep and shark infested waters on an air mattress, (LOL).Land contracts are pretty well dead in the water, two issues, one is with the new laws pertaining to seller financed transactions, if you pass a lending contract on to a buyer you're facilitating a loan assumption and doing so as a business may have consequences.

I just had a flea infested property.

I was in front of the judge with a tenant who had brought a pile of pictures along to say that her home was infested with mice and that I hadn't taken care of the issue.

Find a good pest control company (happy to recommend one in this area), have them take care of the infestation, and then either have them or another contractor clean up the mess.Of course, if it's a HUGE problem, it may be expensive, but a few rats/mice shouldn't be a big deal.That's just my take...

Apparently, the neighbor found bed bugs in his unit so he was letting the neighbors know (aka my tenants) They told him that they had been having a bed bug problem for the last three months and that a mattress that had been placed on the balcony was the result of it being infested with bed bugs.
