Do you know the signs of a rental scam? Keep these in mind before signing a lease!
about 1 year ago, Creswell Admin
Do you know the signs of a rental scam?
• They ask for rent or a security deposit before signing a lease: Do not wire money as a deposit or payment for the first and last month's rent. You cannot get a refund when you wire money, even if you find out the offer was a fraud. • They want you to sign an incomplete lease: By going through your lease to make sure there are no blank spaces, vague writing, or incomplete sentences, you're making sure that you will not be harmed by a manipulated lease in the future. • The listing has typos, poor grammar, or excessive punctuation: If you come across a rental listing that is full of typos, has poor grammar, and contains excessive punctuation, it was likely created by a scammer.
