First and last months rent is usually required when renting a house.
OP is asking about commission paid to an agent. Commission is usually half a month's rent and is paid by the landlord.

Commission is usually one month’s rent based on my experience but could vary by area. OP also mention there is a half month’s deposit which is why I said first and last month’s rent is usually required,
