Leasebreak.com is the New Source for No-Fee Rentals. Move Over, Craigslist

Finding an apartment in New York City without paying a brokerage fee (i.e. a “no fee apartment”) has always been a challenge. Why? Places to find no-fee apartment listings have been very limited in the past. Craigslist is usually the first place people think of when looking for a lease, especially a short-term lease. It’s true that, once in awhile, you can find a good deal there, but unfortunately it has gained a reputation as a breeding ground for unscrupulous brokers and scams. Move over, Craigslist! Leasebreak.com is the newest listing site for no-fee rentals, offering unprecedented transparency during the rental process:

• We provide the exact street addresses for every listed unit.
• We thoroughly monitor the site, making our best effort to ensure that listings and users are legitimate, responding quickly to user feedback.
• Every listing has specific availability dates, so you can search by date and lease length.
• Every listing clearly states whether or not there is a brokerage fee, as well as who is responsible for the listing (i.e. agent, tenant, or landlord).
• We strongly recommend that all users receive landlord approval before posting.

“...didn’t have the time or patience to sift through the wacky responses I received on Craigslist.”

“...With all of the nonsense of Craigslist…. Leasebreak was a massive help…”

“the [Leasebreak] website and interface are clean and easy to use, and I had plenty of folks reach out — none of whom were the scary internet trolls, or bots you might find when listing somewhere like Craigslist.”

“Seems much more professional and standup than Craigslist.”
