Realtor Responsibilities

[dylanesque29.livejournal.com]

Hi all-
Myself and my roommates rented a house near Davis Square, through a realtor in Davis Square. Since we moved in, there have been numerous issues, including woefully inadequate/unsafe electric arrangements. Shouldn't there be inspections every time an apartment changes hands? I'm surprised the realtor doesn't request up-to-date records from the landlord when they show the place.

I'd suggest actually talking to the landlord (realtor only if they are actually managing the property) about it first. If there is no action you can threaten calling the board of health or fire inspectors etc- but leave the big guns for after reasonable communication has failed. It's possible the landlord doesn't even know.
