SPOA Housing Policy, Episode 14 – Broker Fees in the Balance
The discussion centers on the latest push in government to exempt tenants from paying mandatory broker fees, in order to offset too many upfront costs when renting an apartment. However, what negative impact could this have on property owners, especially small business owners, who pay either all or part of these broker fees already at least 30 percent of the time? Is there a better way to solve this issue through cooperative cost sharing and flexible payment plans without government intervention?
Furthermore, how could this negatively impact the hard-working people in the brokerage industry, and why are brokers inexplicably absent in presenting solutions and advocating for themselves?
A panel of real estate experts weigh in on this and other threats to the real estate industry and the construction of much needed housing, including affordable housing, in Massachusetts.
We hear from Demetrios Salpoglou (CEO, Boston Pads), Joe DiGangi (Owner, D2 Development LLC), and Phillip Bakalchuk (Owner, COPA Real Estate Investments).
SPOA Vice President, Amir Shahsavari, moderates the discussion.
