Who should pay the real estate agent for apartment rental in NYC? The tenant or landlord?
October 31, 2009 | Leave a Comment
I am a landlord and I recently rented out an apartment through a real estate agent. The tenant paid 1 month security, first month rent, and the last month rent of a 1 year lease. My real estate agent took the last month rent from my tenant as the commission. This means that I won’t get the last month rent when the lease is up. Is this how it works? I always thought that the tenants pay for the fees. In this case, I am paying for it.
