Deception 1: Pretend "I am the landlord"
Deception: a fake landlord rents out a house that is about to expire, pretending to be a landlord and subletting it at a price slightly lower than the market price, and asking the tenant to pay the rent for half a year or one year at a time. After the tenant pays for a period of time, the real landlord will come to collect the rent, and the tenant will passively fall into a dispute.
Crack secret: when looking at the house, you must verify the identity of the landlord by checking the real estate license and the original ID card. If you find that the proof information is wrong, you can apply for a temporary residence permit under the guise of asking the landlord to help you show your real estate license to the police station, so that you can expose its true colors.
Scam 2: publishing false houses and defrauding agency fees
Deception: it is very common for black intermediaries and fake houses to rent online. In order to attract tenants to postpone, high-quality housing with good conditions and no commission will be released. When the renter consults, he will be told that the house has been rented out, and then enthusiastically recommend other houses, thus raising the rent and collecting commissions in disguise.
The secret of cracking: first, we must choose an intermediary with high credibility, so that such intermediary housing is guaranteed; The second is to inspect the rented houses on the spot, including the indoor environment and living environment; Third, you can consult a number of intermediaries. Generally, when renting a house, the owner will not only choose one channel.
Trick 3: fake contract, waiting for you to jump in.
Deception: When a rental agent or landlord signs a contract, they usually sign it hastily without looking at the terms carefully. The responsibilities of both parties such as property fees, goods losses and contract modification fees are not clearly defined. When they check out, they will detain the money for these reasons and then suffer property losses.
Secret of cracking: When signing a contract, you must distinguish between rights and obligations, such as how to pay the rent, water, electricity, gas and other expenses, who will be responsible for the maintenance of the house facilities if they are not artificially damaged, and how to compensate the landlord for the early termination. In addition, the facilities of the house must be clearly written in the contract before check-in, and the home and household appliances should be inspected to prevent the deposit from being seized as an excuse when checking out.
