Tenant Law PodcastWelcome to the Tenant Law Podcast, where we talk about new, interesting, and/or important legal cases affecting New York City tenants. Listen on Apple, Spotify, Youtube. There are also a bunch of great blog posts on this page of tenant questions and Tenant Learning Platform instructor’s answers.
In Episode 41 we examine the Fairness in Apartment Rental Expenses Act, which prohibits real estate brokers from passing their fees onto residential tenants where the broker is exclusively representing the landlord’s interests. This would include brokers who publish listings with the landlord’s permission. Landlords and their agents are also required to disclose the fees that the tenant must pay in their listings and rental agreements. This law is new and changes things a lot. Whenever that is the case, the law can get off to a bumpy start. We look at what those bumps might be and what you can do to protect yourself.
