Another broker post/question

Has anyone ever encountered a rental broker that asks for more than 15% of the yearly rent as a commission ? Especially if the apartment is below market?

Comments

Yes - They originally wanted 18% but "Negotiated down" to 15%.

Probably want more because they know it is below market and they can get it.

You can usually negotiate a discount for cash... I was once asked for 20% but got it down to 15% for cash
