If you owned a rental, would you bother....

Doesn't matter if they are selling or not, until settlement they still hold the title and are still the landlords and as such have a legal obligation to you to fix any repairs that aren't your fault.

thanks for all the replies, it did get fixed a week after it stoped working, the agents finaly realised the owners werent doing it and organised it themselves then sent the bill off.
just waiting to see if setlement went threw so they can start on the door and everything else now

Yeah, I thought that the house had to be settled/handed over in the state it was at the time of accepting the offer - being that the hot water system was working when the application was accepted, I believe the current owners are under obligation to have it repaired?
