      Hi all… a tenant in our small strata block backed into a brick wall on common property. The wall collapsed.  Our managing agent said insurance would pay to repair.  Quote submitted and approved by insurer, and work completed.  Insurer paid the contractor.

      Now, insurer has sent letter of demand to tenant to refund insurance company in full.  Managing agent says it’s allowed.

      I’ve reviewed our policy and see nothing related to recovering costs.  MA says only recourse is for OC to reimburse the insurance co.

      Anyone else have this experience?  We love the tenant, and they cannot afford to pay it and don;t want them to be harassed for an accident.

      Thanks,

    PLEASE ... If your property is not in NSW, mention its location (state). Don't identify companies or individuals by name. Don't mention or promote your company or services. Keep acronyms and initials to a minimum. Please, don’t use “quote” unless there is a specific point to which you wish to refer, then highlight (define) that specific passage before you click on "quote". Otherwise just use reply. THANKS.
