Broker's fees on New York City apartments areannoying, to say the least, but they're also avoidable—or at least negotiable. Apartment search site Naked Apartments has rentals with fees that top out at 9 percent (as opposed to the usual 12 to 15 percent). We've rounded up current finds from all across the city. You can also search Naked Apartments by “no fee” or “low fee” to see more.

And if you see a place you're interested in, Naked Apartments will make sure an agent’s there to greet you whenever you want to see it with its Showings on Demand feature.
