I'm a landlord and has signed a 2 years contract to rent out my 1 room condo and have paid 1 month agent fee to my property agent. However the tenant has to move back to his country so, he given 2 months notice after completed the 1st year. From what I understand, I should let the agent to find the new tenant for replacement or to get back the agent fee as pro-rated. However, I’m not so sure how long I will need to give to the current agent to find the new tenant as he may take his time to find the replacement. And this mean, my room may be vacant for a while (with no rental income). When should I be able to engage another agent to find the new tenant for me? If I get the tenant from another agent, will I still be able to get the agent fee back from my current agent?
