Hi,  a friend have an apartment that he want to rent it for long term like 10 months, he went to the  RE/MAX office, is there any one did deal with this company?

i mean they told him there will be no contract between him and they, also they'll take 2 keys one for the rental and the other with them

any way this is his first time he rent his new apartment, so please tell me what should he take care of so he don't get scam, also if this is a good company or there's better then it,

Hi RanaAdel,

Re/Max is one of the largest rental agencies world-wide and in Malta.

I'm sure they operate to strict standards with no room for 'scam'.

If I understand you right your friend wants to rent out his apartment. Re/Max would be between him and potential renters but the rental contract would not be with Re/Max. It would be between the two involved parties , owner and renter.

Re/Max is a good company ,like many others in Malta.

Cheers

Shouldn't that read "unlike many others in Malta".  :cool:

Hi tearnet,

a cup can be half-full or half-empty!

And it always boils down to dealing with an agent working for one of these companies.

thank you Ricky,so even if there's a contract between my friend and re/max it's ok he can trust them taking care of his property

Hi RanaAdel,

what kind of contract are you talking about? Is there a contract or isn't there a contract with Re/Max? If Re/Max said there will be no contract between them and the owner then there won't be a contract.

Does your friend have a contract with Re/Max that they 'take care' of his property?

I cannot answer your question without the right information but Re/Max is a large real estate company in Malta and will deal on a professional basis.

Cheers

Take care of your property?
Don't they just rent it out and take half the first months rental as the fee?
If you want them to look after it then they will charge for the service.

RanaAdel, Remax is a well-known company.
I am myself working at an estate agency. We are looking for properties to let and for sale, mostly in Sliema areas (St Julians, San Gwann, Gzira, Msida).
The contract between the owner and the agent must be the agreement of renting or selling the property.
You are very welcome to contact me.
And if you would like to use our services we wold be glad to see you.

Hi RanaAdel,

I found this article at REMAX website and hopefully, it will help you to clarify how things work from REMAX prospective.

Good luck!
