Fatum still calls her a friend
Seriously with friends like that you don't need enemies
That's like pure sabotage, not recognizing own mistake and making people clean up their own shit -_-"
-
You should just let her kenna charged for criminal trespass sia

I was absolutely horrified this morning when the leasing told me that the tenants found their things and furniture moved and rearranged ......
I mean, you rent a place, it's for all intents and purpose, your home, your private castle .... it's inviolate .....
even if the property owner wants to sell the place, permission still have to be obtained from the tenants to view the place !!!!!!!!!! ... you don't need CEHA to know that, it's basic courtesy !!!!
tell me .... what am I to do ??? .....
-
fatum, I am not sure about Singapore... but in Oz, the tenants actually have more rights than the landowner. If it happens in Oz, the landowner will be in deep trouble.... You might get sued!

hmmmm i'm reading up on netbooks and i wonder why the fark do people want the netbook to be so powerful.
its not a friggin gaming machine, its not a mobile phone, its not a work computer.
and because of that, they declare a netbook obsolete.

you can talk to the tenants, assure them that this will never happen again while you are the agent, then assure them that you will do what you can to ensure that the other agent does not do anything like this again...
give them your card if they find anything else wrong, and to call you...
then maybe on your part, to show sincerity, buy them something as a token.. a lunch, a dinner, a hamper.. something...
then, go back to your agency and put in a formal complaint against the other agent...
-
I think you should just tell her off bluntly la
Clean up the shit if you have to and never work with her again.
And yes Bear is right about a formal complaint against the other agent

I don't think it makes a difference anywhere ..... it's basic courtesy and common sense ......
I'm flabbergasted .... blanked ..... zonked .......
it's a WTF moment .......

Agrees with both ah bear and elindra...
Best is to do damage control... Gifts or lunch or dinner or watever... next is settle the problem and nv co work with the same person again... blacklist her...
-
oh yeah.. when you put in the formal complaint, you let the tenants know too...
this shows that you are doing something to prevent such things from happening again...
then, assure them that you will pursue this...
follow up when necessary

actually, that's about what I did .... the tenants changed the locks at 1am last night and guess who's picking up the bill ?
after I heard about this, I promptly went down in person to speak to the tenants yesterday evening, and left them my card, that's how the leasing agents got hold of me this mornning. I've also been working on the owner, who's been getting a shitstorm from the tenants side as well ........
people cobroke all the time .... why this has got to happen to me !?!?!?!?! .....
AAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH !!!!!!!

Ya! In your line of business your reputation is very important
And if your clients think that you don’t protect their interest and do nothing, your reputation goes out of the window.
This is not about friendship or what not but about personal responsibility and work ethics.
If you don’t handle this damage control properly, your name will be affected too which I don’t think it’s worth it at all.
Bear is giving you very good adv.

I can't really do that ......
it's the wife of a 15 years buddy .........
that's what makes it WTF ...... if it's just another ordinary cobroke agent I'd have told the tenants to call the police already ..... -____-"

ahhh shyt...
boss is hounding me on work... but it was delegated to the other dept... When I asked them how's the progress, they told me nthing had been done over the pass few months...
truely well done -

Unfortunately what happened had happened. Nothing you can do about it now.... but you can only ensure that it's not going to happen again.
Well, just think it this way.... the cost of a new lock is cheaper than cost of legal fee.....

talk to your buddy...as for the formal complaint, you have to do it...
buddy or not, this is about work.. it's business and not personal...
-
I think you still have to put a formal complaint
Work is work, friends is friends
Tell your buddy before you put out a complaint
You can also tell him if it’s not his wife, the cops would have been called upon
If your buddy is a responsible human being he would understand the situation you’re in

Alamak I just saw Bear’s reply >.<”

it's not really about the trouble or the money ! ....
but my client trusted me ! ..... and I thought I could trust the other agent ! ......
she called me on monday to arrange for a viewing, but I told her, no .... don't .... cos the tenants just moved in, let them settle in first, and I'll get the tenant contacts from the owners and then we'll arrange new viewings .......
little did I imagine, she'd let the buyers and herself in with the keys ...... -___-"

i don't take friends into account if the other fella was behaving like an A hole.
wrong means wrong. work means work.
if u are gonna get pissed with me for telling u that u are behaving like an A hole, u are not worthy to be a friend.
therefore your friend should actually tell off his wife instead of getting pissed with you.

Spoken like kopio, straight to the point
I like

Yeah.... buddy's wife or not, what she did was wrong, period.
You gotta straight talk to your buddy that you're gonna file a formal complaint against his wife because what she did can get you into a career-ending sh*tstorm, and that police reports can be filed against her.
And like everyone else said, yes, get back into the tenants' good books by offering them a hamper or something, and keep them posted about the formal action against the other agent. At least that will show them that you're genuinely trying to help them.

well, I just picked up the tab for the new lock .....
I'm getting a bottle of wine too ....
as for the owner, I see an even bigger shitstorm coming up .....
but of course, I don't think I'll be working with her again ....
