Proposed bill in NY City Council would change the way landlords and tenants pay broker fees

Any New York City renter is familiar with paying thousands of dollars upfront for a broker they didn’t hire.

Councilmember Chi Osse, who represents Bed-Stuy and parts of Crown Heights, is pushing a bill that would require whoever hires the broker to pay the broker fee. Real estate advocates say this bill would harm landlords and tenants. Osse talked with WNYC's Sean Carlson more about this issue.
