Hi!

I relocated from England recently and so am unfamiliar with the rental process in NYC.

I viewed an apartment that I really liked and as I was chatting to the realtor about it she popped out a few forms and asked me to sign one of them. I asked what it was and she said it was to show that she had showed me around two apartments. I signed.

Today I was taken around by another realtor, who has been hired by my company. I now realise that I need to use her in order not to pay broker fees (as my co will pay them) and I think that I was made to sign an agreement that said I would pay fees to the other broker. My new broker tells me that this agreement won't stand up, especially as I do not have a copy of it.

Is this right?! I don't want to be sued!

Thanks!

Not knowing what the agreement says, I don't know. Did you read it before signing? In NYC, many apts are managed by management companies and there is no commission. Is this a privately owned co-op?
