For renters, finding a house usually comes from two situations, on the one hand, through friends' introduction or online search, on the other hand, the traditional way of entrusting an intermediary company. Nowadays, in order to save money, many college students just look for a house outside without an intermediary, but sometimes the house they find online is not necessarily true.
The reporter visited an intermediary in Hankou and happened to interview Xiao Wang, a newly graduated college student who took the store to find a house. Xiao Wang said, because I was looking for a house online before, I found that the landlord was fake when I had to pay the money, so I went to the intermediary for consultation now to see if there was a suitable house, at least it could be guaranteed.
Xiao Wang said that before he posted on the Internet, he wanted to rent a house with one bedroom and one living room. After the post was sent, many people responded, but the house was either too far away from the company or the price was too high, so things were delayed. Until one afternoon, a middle-aged man called me and said he wanted to rent the company's house, and the price was quite good. I was very happy after listening, so I asked my colleague Xiao Li to accompany me to see the house. Also, look at the houses in the same neighborhood. Why is the rent in his house so much more expensive than other houses? You should be careful. Under Xiao Li's reminder, I asked the landlord to show the real estate license when signing the contract, but on the day of signing the contract, the landlord just took out a red book from the bag, shook it and put it in the bag. I insisted on reading it carefully, and he reluctantly gave me the real estate license. He snatched it back before I could read it carefully. I felt something was wrong, so I lied that I didn't have enough money and signed the contract another day.
How to distinguish between true and false landlords
Everyone who studies and works in other places may encounter the problem of renting a house. When renting a house, be sure to check the owner's property certificate to see if the landlord's manner is strange or nervous. In order to prevent fake owners from cheating money, we must carefully check the owner's property certificate, and it is necessary to look at the original owner's ID card. At the same time, in order to ensure that the owner's certificate is not forged, we can go to the housing management office, the neighborhood Committee or the property department to understand the property rights of the house.
Relevant professional lawyers said that when renting a house, we should not only distinguish the authenticity of the real estate license, but also check whether there are other people's names on the real estate license, whether there are several people who own the house and whether there is a mortgage.
Bian Xiao also tells you some opinions and suggestions here for your reference:
1. The owner shall show the original proof of the ownership of the house, such as the property right certificate or the use right certificate. If you are handling the property right certificate, you should show the purchase contract signed with the original property right unit.
2. Show the original ID card and household registration book. Nowadays, many swindlers cheat with fake ID cards, and the original is easier to distinguish the authenticity than the copy.
3. Introduce the situation around the house and the residential area, and know whether the owner is familiar with the basic situation of the house from his talk.
4. Ask the neighbors about the house and the owner to determine whether it is true.
