I have been doing the researching of apartments to rent myself, scheduling the viewing appointments and seeing the apartments on my own. A couple of landlord agents have told me that even though I did all the work myself without any tenant agent whatsoever, I must still pay the commission of the landlord’s agent simply because the market right now is in favor of the landlords and the landlords are deciding to pass the expense on to the tenants. I find this unethical and corrupt. What recourse do I have?
