Mayor Adams voiced concern Tuesday about a City Council bill that would prohibit landlords from forcing tenants to pay broker fees, arguing the measure could result in “long-term” affordability concerns for everyone involved.

A bill to have NYC landlords pay for broker fees, instead of tenants, is up for a vote before the New York City Council.

The New York City Council passed, in a 42-8 vote, a bill that will put an end to forcing tenant-paid brokers fees, as the city looks for strategies to tackle the housing affordability crisis. Now, whoever hires the broker will have to pay their fees.
