I want to rent a house in Hangzhou and find an intermediary. As a result, I have to pay before I look at the house. I paid the money. Have you been cheated ... or is it a unified industry rule in Hangzhou?
There are many swindlers in the intermediary, so we must pay more attention. When renting a house, don't give any money to the agent before you see the landlord. No matter how tight the house is, no matter what they say, it's all psychological warfare. I have rented a house for many years and haven't seen many conscientious intermediaries. Let me give you a suggestion. When dealing with an intermediary, you always have to pay in the end.
Judging from your experience, it is estimated that you have been cheated, and you have never paid the rent first.
