In Hyderabad rentals, the market norm is one month’s rent as brokerage, most commonly paid by the tenant. In some deals – especially owner-initiated mandates or premium gated communities – the owner pays, or the fee is split 50:50. For resale purchases, brokerage is typically 1-2% of the sale value and is usually paid by each side to their respective broker.
There is no law fixing these percentages; they are conventions, so always confirm the fee and who pays it in writing before site visits begin. Through Broker Network’s Co Close system, two brokers can co-close a deal and share commission transparently, which avoids last-minute fee disputes.
