See the home, the owner’s documents and a written agreement before any money changes hands.
See the home first, in person or by a live video call, never only from photos.
Check who you’re dealing with. Ask for the ownership certificate or an extract from the property register and compare the name with the person you’re talking to. A listing with the Ownership checked badge has already passed this check by our moderators.
Sign a written lease that states the rent, the deposit, what it covers and when it’s returned.
