I can relate absolutely.
This time last year I was also house hunting.
Especially with the wonderful house agents we have in Nigeria, π
It was so relieving to finally get one after over 2 weeks of active hunting.

Hahahaha, they are devil's agent. One guy was trying to get me into a house with missing window panels. I mean π€£
Omohhhh.
They don't have the fear of God o

I thought real-estate agent are bad here. Its a global phenomenon. BTW how much are they chargeing there?
Let's not go there!!!πππ
I can speak for my current city though.
Agency fee- 20 percent of rent fee
Service charge- 10 percent of rent fee
Legal fee 10 percent of rent fee
That's fine I guess.
Here dude is straight up demanding one month rent to be paid to him as finders fee. That's criminal act don't you think. But people here have made it a norm.
π
Amazing π
Finders fee.
What they take here is inspection fee. For every house you inspect, you pay an amount of money which is non refundable π
π€£π€£π€£ oh my god.
I will consider a change in careers once the hunt is over. They aren't chargeing fee they are simply exploiting our situation.
