Precautions for renting a house: anti-fraud.

1. False propaganda induces consumers to sign contracts. Some housing agencies attract customers with so-called "high quality and low price" houses. In the complaint case, there was an advertisement that lied about the transfer of furniture and home appliances, but it was not stated in the contract, so that consumers could buy houses and see houses falsely.

Two, the conclusion of the overlord contract, the rights and interests of consumers can not be guaranteed. A consumer complained that when the intermediary company signed the contract, it was agreed that, with or without introduction, as long as the consumer signed the contract with the information room of the intermediary company, it was necessary to pay the intermediary fee. These clauses are illegal.

Third, illegal business operations have harmed the interests of consumers. Some houses introduced by intermediary companies to consumers are illegal or lack of legal procedures, which makes it impossible for buyers to go through the formalities; Some houses can't be bought without property right certificate, but in order to earn intermediary fees, the intermediary company tells the buyers that there is no need to go through the formalities, so this kind of house can't be guaranteed legally.

Fourth, make excuses and charge various fees. Some intermediary companies find various excuses, in addition to legal intermediary fees, but also charge so-called room fees, consulting fees and other fees.

Fifth, payment is easier than refund. Judging from the complaints, it is difficult to return the money handed over to the intermediary company to consumers. For example, after the lease expires, the intermediary company should refund its housing deposit, but some intermediary companies find excuses such as damaging things, that is, they will not refund the deposit.

6. Unlicensed "black intermediaries" cheat money. Some "black intermediaries" without fixed business premises and licenses use consumers' ignorance to defraud money, and once they are found, they will run away.
