Generally Agency Fees for tenancy agreements is 10% of the tenancy rates X how many years they collect from you e.g if the property is going for N100,000 per annum, the agency fee is 10% of N100,000 which amounts to N10,000 for one year and if the agent is collecting 2 years rent, that's N10,000 x 2 Years which is N20,000. So you calculate it by the years and 10% For property sales, it is usually 5% of the total price paid for the property (Negotiable in some instances if you have a skilled lawyer in pointing out the reasons it should be less than 5%) All agency fees are usually borne by the buyer or tenant and not the landlord or seller? Strange system in my opinion ![]() 1 Like |

Or does he pay N100,000 and the landlord gets N90,000 while the agent takes N10,000? Please clarify. |

Let's draw the line between legality n reality. Legally agency fee į̸̸̨§ 10% but in reality, not so for all these agents in lagos. They charge agency fee that's almost as high as the rent itself. The so-called legal 10% comes into operation when dealing with property sales or rents that are high. |
