I've moved 5 times in Chicago in the last 5 years, and each time I tried a broker but it was a miserable experience. I ended up finding a place on craigslist each time.
I'm looking to move to NYC soon and I all I see are $1500 broker fees the tenant has to pay. Its pretty insane.
- billpaetzke 11y agoWith 1-bedrooms averaging above 3k/mo, you're looking at a broker's fee of $4500. Even if you get a cheap studio at 2k/mo, the fee is 3k.
- bonesinger 11y agoYeah, actually I was looking in Jersey City and they were $1500, $4500 is insane to me. I'm from the NY tri-state area but I never bothered trying to live in NYC.
