The property has two flats, top and bottom. Since the lawns were shared by both tenants, I was told by the property agent that I would have to maintain them. So I am responsible for mowing the lawns.
Yes, that’s correct my agent on my behalf came to an undocumented settlement with the injured person’s daughter. To my disbelief I was told after it was all settled. And I suspect that the property agent thinks that I should be grateful to them for handled this situation “well” and getting me out of trouble.
I will change the agent after the property gets tenanted.
Thanks for the replies. Yes I have LL insurance which has public liability cover. But still I feel it’s a hassle if it gets that far. The tenant had given a notice to leave when this happened and has left now. I did think that agent acted meekly and not in my best interests. But since this was handled by the Licensee of the agency who obviously has more experience than me in handling these issues, I wasn’t sure. So I thought it was best to ask experienced people here before I give the agent a mouthful.

SamHi Ryan, thanks for your input. I didn’t knew you could trial managers for short period. I think they insisted on signing the contract before they undertook the job. Mine even insisted on a 2-month notice period if I wanted to end the contract.
Cheers,
SamThank you very much Marc.
