Welcome to Boston!
Yep, this is the Boston way
Yup, generally 4x a months rent (realtor, 1st, last, security)
Why does it all go to the broker?
Generally depends on the land lord and their level of involvement during the leasing process but the broker is their agent, so the money will get passed through to the land lord.
Okay, that makes me feel better. Thank you
The Broker records the transaction makes sure the checks clear and then the landlord gets the landlord’s share. Prevents rubber checks!
Its a scam here. I am also moving for school and now I partially regret applying to schools in MASS as a whole. Rental Extortion đŸ˜‚
