broker fee in Brooklyn, NY rentals

[Cody C.]

Hello.   Most of the times, who pays the broker fee in Brooklyn, NY (specifically for this market...not rest of NYC) for rentals -- the tenant or the landlord?    When I look up this question on internet, it always says that in NYC, its the tenant who pays ...but in reality I am told that about half of Brooklyn listings are no fee (meaning that landlord pays) in order to get it rented fast.   Does it sound right?    Thank you.
