Promise Realty

There is an Agent there by the name of MINA LEE, she is brokering businesses for sale at a 25% commission for listed business charging the buyer. I am pretty sure this is illegal in the state of NY to be charging the buyer a 25% commission of the total sale. I am sure business brokers charged a fee to the seller and even then it is not 25 percent.

Illegally asking for 25% percent commission and one month of rent to purchase a small commercial business. Might as well be stealing from people. How are they even allowed to be business brokers when they don't even advertise that on their website? On top of that the agent could barely speak english. Beware of this place , basically just tying milk any money out of consumers by squeezing in to be the middle men anywhere theres a profit .

Deceptive practices from their agent Chong Gil Moon. I hired this agent on 5/25/22 to lease a vacant retail space for $5000/month. After filling out paperwork to the terms, such as his commission would be one month rent split between the landlord and tenant, which was also confirmed by my wife over the phone but we should have gotten it in writing. I made the error of putting the rent I was looking for as his compensation. His first offer came on 6/29/22 for $3500/month. I kind of laughed at it and at that time I should have fired him and found a different agent who was honest. At this point, he was working for the tenant as well as the landlord. After much back and forth, the rent was finalized at $4750/month, under the original asking of $5000 and the lease signed. He sends me a bill for $5000 as his commission that I was responsible for. When I asked about the agreement that his commission was to be one month rent split between both parties, he denied everything. He told me that he normally charges more and he was doing me a favor. At this point I believe that he never even mentioned the split commission to the tenant since he was afraid of the deal falling through. He saved the tenant $250/month over a five year period. I will no longer do any further business with him and Promise Realty.

***GO SOMEWHERE ELSE WHO SHOWS RESPECT*** I called in to see if they can help me with my basement rental and the guy who answered the phone was very unprofessional. He was talking and laughing with his colleagues about me for calling in with basement rental while he had me waited on the line. I don't see what so funny about it. It could be small this time and if I am happy with their service I could be selling my house with them in the future. I guess they don't appreciate my business then i will bring it to somewhere else.
