During normal market conditions (as if there is such a thing in Manhattan), it's been my experience that broker apartments are cheaper than broker-less apartments. Of course, the converse is true if you only amortize the brokerage fees over a term less than 24 months.

In my experience the price is always the same, the house never loses. If the landlord paid the broker fee then they put that amount amortized in the rent, if not then the tenant pays the broker fee but the monthly rent is “cheaper”
