Under the FARE Act in effect since August 2024, NYC landlords who engage a broker pay the broker fee directly rather than passing it to tenants. In neighborhoods like Boerum Hill, this has shifted some smaller landlords toward self-listing, which has tightened the supply of agent-listed rentals citywide and lifted competition for what remains on market.
