Question
If an agent is appointed to affix mezuzot, who recites the blessing for affixing them, and is there any change in the wording of the blessing when the agent recites it?
Answer
If the homeowner also affixes a mezuzah with a blessing and appoints an agent to affix an additional mezuzah, the homeowner recites the blessing, and the agent fulfills the obligation with the homeowner's blessing. However, if the homeowner does not affix a mezuzah and only the agent does, the agent recites the blessing himself in the usual form – "... to affix a mezuzah."
