Because of our unique way of providing you with real estate listings on ZeroCommHomes, you’re dealing 100% of the time with private owners. Therefore, there are no agency fees you were used to paying. Now you only once pay mere $19 for 3 months and save approximately $3864 on a commission for a rental apartment by owner in NYC, on average. With us, you can contact with as many direct owners/landlords as you need.
When renting an apartment with a real estate agency, you will always pay commissions worth at least $2,000 to $6,000 in NYC, on average, which is one monthly rent. In case your rent is more expensive or somehow special you can pay even more on a fee to a broker. All for the luxury of not dealing with a private owner when renting.
For instance, in Brooklyn, NYC, without ZeroCommHomes you would pay at least $2,520 on a broker fee for a single studio apartment when renting not with a direct owner.
