Are you or tenant paying Broker Fee? Why or Why Not?

[Nadiyah M.]

I am investor/landlord and Real Estate agent so I've been on both sides.  As you probably know, that average rents in NJ are $2000-2500.  Most tenants are reluctant to pay equal to one months rent, however, I've rented a few where they pay with no problem.  I listed 2 newly renovated apartments on behalf of another landlord.  They are sitting because of this.  What is your experience?
