I would like to know what is the deal when an agent has problems finding a tenant and you decide to change plans? I have a property that I have had an agent unsuccessfully try to lease out now for over a month. Each time they say someone has taken it then a few days later when they are meant to sign the lease they call up to say they have decided to take another place.
So now I'm thinking of putting the place on the market for sale instead and actually go and live in it myself until it's sold and maybe do a few more renovations to it on top of the recent ones I done. I'm overseas right not so that is why I would just live in it if I came back. The agent has spent a bit of time looking for tenants, advertising etc. Would I be expected to pay them if I pull out and not need their services? I know that I would have to pay 1 weeks lease plus and advertising fee but the 1 week is for only if it is leased right?
