The tenant finds the real estate agent, finds the landlord through the agent, and then completes the transaction through tripartite negotiation. In this way, the rental agency fee is charged. The agency fee will be paid according to a certain proportion of the tenant's first month rent.

However, it varies according to local practices and the length of the lease, and some are all borne by the tenant. The price is more expensive!
