Points 2 and 3 are not sure signs of a scam. Some landlords use “stock” photos that may be the same as the ones on Redfin/Zillow/MLS. And, there are “management companies” that amount to an 80 year old guy, his 2 sons, and one of his grandsons, that don’t have a website because they only manage their own properties. These 2 scenarios describe my current and previous apartments, respectively.
- sjf 7y agoYes, but if the photos obviously unprofessional, badly light and taken with a phone- it is definitely _not_ a scam. Similarly, no dogs/no cats- almost definitely _not_ a scam. Every scam listing I've seen has had pets OK.
- roel_v 7y agoYeah that's the one that stuck out to me. An apartment as nice as the one described wouldn't allow pets, at least not if they're as experienced as they claimed to be here.
