Agent and Landlord

Hello hello to all the sifus,

I currently have an issue with the Agent (and Landlord) after handing over the keys.

It is an old condo , more than 15 years - so after I move out and handed the keys the landlord message me and told me she wants to fix a tile that has a hole. But two weeks ago, I told her the hole has been there but it just grew bigger due to cleaning.

Fast forward after I hand the keys and she message me about the fixing, I spoke to the agent that rented me this unit.

1. She call me stupid for telling the landlord that perhaps the hole got bigger due to cleaning.

2. She said that because it is the owner that pay her the commission, she said she is on landlords side.

3. She send me a picture before I move in and she told me the hole is already there - so she will talk to the landlord BUT ask me not to tell the landlord she send me the picture that I have the picture from before she rented to me with the hole.
hours later, she change the story and said landlord say the hole got bigger so it won’t cost much for me to pay to fix.

My question is, am I responsible for the existing defect that’s already there? And it seems like the agent is taking 100% the owner side and I feel that I am at the losing end.
