Is there an agency fee for renting a property?

Calculate how much it will cost to decorate your home.

Foreigners who work in cities often rent houses, and some owners will entrust property to rent houses on their behalf. Is there an agency fee for renting that house? Many tenants will naturally have such questions. Next, we will introduce them through the following contents. Let's take a look!

See if there is any agreement on this part in the signed contract. If there is, there will be an agency fee. In most cases, the property will charge the tenant a part of the fee, but the price is lower than that of the real estate agent. Because the property has no obligation to help the owner rent it for free, it will naturally charge.

However, it is worth noting that if the property needs to charge an intermediary fee, it is best to see if it is legal. If it is illegal, there is reason to refuse to pay the agency fee. At the same time, we should also pay attention to whether the renter really belongs to the residential property, not the third-party intermediary, and collect the intermediary fee in disguise under the relevant banner.

In real life, the agency fee is often that the tenant and lessor share one month's rent, that is, they each pay half a month's rent. If the tenant signs a rental contract through a real estate agent, the agency fee shall be borne by the tenant, and the fee shall be drawn according to a certain proportion of the rent.

According to relevant regulations, if the leasing situation is complicated, the agency fee may be increased within the basic standard after both parties reach an agreement through consultation, but it shall not exceed 10%. Therefore, many intermediaries will calculate the fees according to this situation and charge 2.2% rent, but they also need to pay 0.5% guarantee fee, while the fees charged by small intermediaries are usually 1 to 1.5%.

In fact, with the popularity of the Internet, rental websites emerge one after another. Like some big websites, the listing information is true and effective, and there are pictures, which can intuitively understand the listing information. The most important thing is that the tenant can contact the landlord directly, which saves the intermediate link and the agency fee. In the long run, renting a house is more economical than an intermediary.
