Finding the right home is hard. And when you find the perfect one, it’s understandable why you’d want to move fast.
Here are a few things to help keep you safe from a rental scam.
- If it looks too good to be true, it probably is — especially if the price is low for that area.
- Before you pay any money, or share personal info (like your Social Security Number or bank account), make sure you sign a lease. This is especially true when you’re asked to wire money. To be safe, you should also meet them in person.
- Every site must include the name of the listing agent or person selling the home.
- Double-check the home detail page to see if those names match. If they don’t, it’s most likely fake.
