Hello,
I have been a subtenant for almost one year. Never missed a rent payment, never missed a bill payment, never made trouble to anyone.
The sublease expires in two weeks and I wanted to become a tenant but property management company which is a real estate agence at the same time REQUIRED to pay them a broker's fee (1 month rent) to become a tenant!
I said that I would not pay that because they had not done anything for me to help me to find this apartment. I found the apartments without their help and have been living there for 1 year already.
Then they changed their mind and asked to pay 525 dollars for "paper work". What paper work?
I said "no". Then they said to pay 400 dollars for paper work and to pay in cash! Plus month rent plus security deposit...
Please, can anyone tell me what are they doing????
Do they have rights to behaive like this? They just trying to take money from me for letting me to live in the apartment.. Is that legal?
Thanks a lot
