I'm curious, at what point in the rental process are all these fees disclosed for services that everywhere else are simply built into the rent? If it's not in the listing it seems pretty shady to me. Apparently there's a lot about the hi rise renting world I don't know as a mom-n'-pop operator. I would be embarrassed to charge my tenants for taking the trash from the cans to the curb.

I can only speak for high-rise buildings as I've never seen this sort of thing with smaller landlords. They will not mention these fees on their listings, but when you come for a walkthrough, they provide you with a sheet of all the potential fees, some of which are mandatory. I don't think they're even listed on their websites....
