Can the tenant be evicted?

[Alex Smith]

Hi All,

Tenant (represented by an agent) wants to move in the day after application is submitted, stating that the landlord wants to raise rent. Not a week has gone by, and having issues, such as water damage, and not turning over the utilities, and generally being unresponsive. At this point, double-checking the referenced landlord on the application, the supposed landlord provides rosy feedback, but doesn't seem to know all the details about the property, which led me to check the title owner which seems to be someone else. If a misrepresentation has occurred here, Is this ground for eviction ? Also, what sort of liability/responsibility does the agent have in this situation?

Regards,

Alex
