How do we avoid scams when vacation home renters want cash up front?
Answered By Editor
Renting a vacation home requires a certain
amount of trust from both parties. The renter
must be sure that the home will be as
advertised, and the owner must be sure that
the renter will not damage the home or cancel
at the last minute.
There are a few good ways to avoid being
scammed in these circumstances. The first is
to get references. If people, especially
people you know, have rented successfully in
the past, that means it is likely you are
going to have a successful rental yourself.
Also, be sure to check with the county to
ensure that the person renting the property
is the actual owner. Finally, consider
renting through a broker, and check out the
broker with the local BBB.
