The state does not have a clear-cut law specifying who should bear these fees, leading to differing practices in different cities and situations. However, recent developments have brought some clarity to this issue.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_pays_rental_broker_fees_in_Massachusetts-2\"><\/span><b>Who pays rental broker fees in Massachusetts?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nSince September 1, 2020, it has become more common for tenants to cover the cost of rental broker fees in Massachusetts. This shift occurred due to a ruling by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) in the case of Hui v. Castaneda. The court determined that landlords are not responsible for paying rental broker fees unless they have explicitly agreed otherwise in writing.<\/p>\n<p>This decision overturned a previous industry practice where landlords typically paid rental broker fees. Now tenants are more likely to be required to pay these fees directly instead of having them included in the overall rental cost.<\/p>\n<p>This new ruling has significant implications for both tenants and landlords throughout the state. Tenants should be aware of this change and factor in the additional expense when budgeting for their new rental property. Meanwhile, landlords who used to cover rental broker fees need to adjust their leasing practices accordingly.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span><b>FAQs:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Do_tenants_always_have_to_pay_rental_broker_fees_in_Massachusetts\"><\/span>1.
