No agent. No fee. No commission.

NYC brokers typically charge 4–6 months rent as a placement fee on conventional leases, and 1–2 months commission on flex and managed space. On a $192K/year deal, that's $19K–$38K extracted from the deal before you sign — often without you seeing the invoice.

Seek removes that layer entirely. Your enquiry goes direct to the building's operator. They quote their real number. You negotiate direct.

Direct enquiry to the operator — no broker layer, no inflated quote to cover a commission.
Transparent pricing — operators on Seek compete on their actual rates, not rates padded to recover a finder's fee.
Faster process — no broker scheduling calls between you and the building. Enquiry goes direct; operator responds direct.
Zero fee to seekers — Seek charges operators a subscription or a small closing fee. Tenants pay nothing to use the platform.
