The rental agent is responsible for checking the status of all his/her rental properties - thats why there is a HUGE window between checking in and checking out. We used to rent out our place and the rental agent was responsible for any issues with the house for that stretch of weeks she rented.

If their was a leaky sink - SHE called the plumber - if the lights burned out - she was called - THATS WHY THE HOUSE OWNER PAYS THEM A COMMISSION!

Shame on Strictly Rentals - the ants should have been noted during the walk through before the renters even got there and if there was even a couple of ants crawling around something should have been done right away!
