Usually the owner. For an estate, the estate pays or the cost comes from the sale of the house. Family members sometimes share it. In a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant.
The crew works with added protection and removes affected materials. Pest control and mold remediation are separate trades, and the team can say when they are needed so you can plan.
When the resident is living in the home, yes, and hoarding cleanups hold up best with their agreement. Clearing without it can cause distress and the home often fills again. After a move or a death, the owner or estate decides.
