Here's a prickly one.
I attend an open house on the weekend for a property on the market. I opened the back and proceeded to walk outside onto the deck. The deck was old and the rain made it slippery. As I walked down the ramp I slipped and slid down the ramp. Within 5 minutes 2 others slipped and slid down the ramp. Deck is in reasonable condition, needed a little work.
No one was hurt but got me thinking, do you need public liability insurance before inviting the public to view your property?
Say I hurt my back who would be liable - the owners or real estate agent?
