Asked by Rachna Bhatia
Hi, I am a tenant and had directly responded to an ad and rented the private apt from the owners agent. I have no contact details of the owner who lives abroad and the owner has authorised his agent as the go between. We have been paying the agent's fee (half the monthly rent)for the past 2 years.
My question is whether we are required by law to keep on paying the agent's fee every year if we want to stay in the same house? Since the agent doesnt divulge any owner details, we cannot negotiate the rental and other issues with owner directly.
