This company is not legit
This company is not legit, be very wary. Thank goodness my daughter’s bank blocked the deposit payment and contacted her about the legitimacy of the account she was asked to transfer to.
Red flags that we should have paid more attention to:
1. The company was willing to ”hold” the apartment until August even though they had a viewing in May.
2. My daughter and her roommate offered above the asking price because there was supposedly so much interest, but they received a contract the next day with the regular price.
3. The price was almost “too good to be true.”
4. The address of the supposed owner listed on the contract was a sketchy, random restaurant.
5. The deposit and first month’s rent payments were to be sent to different foreign accounts. As mentioned above, her bank blocked the payment thankfully!
As mentioned by others, I think they use furnished apartments (or AirBnBs) and give multiple viewings, give multiple potential tenants contracts, and then ask for deposits. Then they ghost you if they get your money successfully.
Do your due diligence if you want to rent from them!!!
