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.
Not always. If access can be arranged, the owner or a family member does not have to stay on site. Clear instructions about what to keep and a way to reach someone help the job go smoothly.
