Low-Fee rental roundup: East Village, Theater District, Upper West Side and more, from $2,600 to $5,899 a month

There are some great things about living in New York—the never-ending nightlife, the ever-present culture—but the downside is paying up for even a small place to hang your hat, not to mention having to pay a broker’s fee of 12-15% of the annual rent on top of that.

Some folks rely on roommates to defray the expense. Others look to Mom and Dad. And still others make it their mission to find a no-fee or low-fee place (meaning one with a broker fee of less than 9% of a year’s rent). Check out the apartments listed here in our Low-Fee Rental Roundup or click the “low-fee” search box at apartment rental search website Naked Apartments. 

Eager to eyeball one of these places this very second? Naked Apartments will send over a broker ASAP via its new Showings on Demand feature.
