What I have experienced
At first we agreed the rental is 3k (example) with internet, who know the agent signed up expensive package for my tenant which cost RM3xx, which I initially thought was only RM1xx. Then before move in, asked me to service all the aircon, clean all the curtains, pest control (said I need to provide receipt, then before the tenant move out, they will do the same)
And when give commission, she told me their company is 1.5 months commission instead of 1 month. I argued then managed to settle back with 1 month, with the condition she will get commission again when the tenant renew. I argue further then finally agreed with 1 month.
It's really stress full dealing with this agent, feel like she is doing two faces between me and my tenant.
Any more tricks they might use? So that I can be more careful?

Honestly, i dont see the point of getting an agent to do the listing for you.
Why don't u just do posting yourself. instead of letting them taking money from you from their so called "advertising and networking". Some solicitor offer with a fees for pre-written agreement for rental, you could use that, don't need to everything go through property agent.
