I stated on the day the tenants move out that I don't want them to continue so officially I didn't give them any notice.I phoned the real estate board when they wouldn't answer my…[Read more]

I raised the whole disclosure of information with the Licensee. He did not read my complaint properly, said the issue was rectified and that the girl in charge does a fantastic job and he has full faith.I wrote back saying read the email properly and he never responded. The tenants were due to move out in a few days so I thought hold on t…[Read more]

This means they are responsible for the rent until I find someone else. I'll let you know how that goes.I did a lot of reading on the legal responsibilty of…[Read more]

There is a 1m crack on one of the walls but apart from that no damage. The PM will provide me with a full reportHowever I have found out that the PM was notified of damage by one of…[Read more]

Lets see what happens!Can I ask, when you claim damage on insurance, do your premiums go up? What is everyone else's experience?

There is definately damage to the property, I will advise the PM that I want an inspection asap, not when they give a date to move out.Thanks for you suggestion, the PM is good but at the end of the day it is just a job for them, your right it is not their money.
