Real Estate / Polish Nieruchomości (real estate) commission madness! [25]

well, problem is that here in Wroclaw the market seems like it is totally dominated by Agents giving me not many alternatives, plus this time of the year the better properties have already been rented to students arriving earlier in September. I am really disappointed by how the residential system works and will really hate paying two weeks rent to somebody who has been mediocre at best at doing his job but as I need to find something quick I guess I will have to suck it up this time.

Real Estate / Polish Nieruchomości (real estate) commission madness! [25]

what would you think to be a fair sum?

well, I wasn't looking to pay any fees for signing the contract but expecting that the agent would make its income form the administrative fee that is paid every month...as I realise that I will have to pay an upfront fee now I just wanted to check with you guys that this is a standard practice here and that I am not being fooled by the agents as being a foreigner I am easy prey...

Real Estate / Polish Nieruchomości (real estate) commission madness! [25]

Hi Polish Forums,

I've just relocated to Poland (Wroclaw) and find myself looking for a place to live in. When contacting with the local Real Estate Agents here I find that their fees are exorbitant and normally ask for a full month in compensation if I am to sign a contract with them...Of course, this is not something I am willing to pay and after some arguing in most cases they agree to a 50% reduction. Is this standard? Can I still push further?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.
