Hi All,
I would like some advice on the flowing problem I have with my property management company. Below is a simplified version of the whole story.
My rental property has a Hedge and we have always assumed that the tenants were responsible for taking care of this - trimming etc.
We have always believed this as our property manager (who has conveniently since resigned) never said other wise.
2 things i would have expected the Property Manager to have done.
This was never done and the tenants are now billing us for for a couple of Hundred dollars for doing this work.
I believe the Property Management company should be liable for that cost for not doing their job properly - One would assume that is what I pay them for.
Of course they are not wanting to pay this (they have actually agreed to pay a similar amount for another issue which I have not explained here).
My question is should I take this to court - or bite the bullet given the small cost in dispute here?

- Included the hedge trimming in the Tenancy Contract.
- Or advised us that we should be taking care of the Hedges if it wasn't in the contract?
