Tenant safety checklist
Confirm the house is still available before travelling.
Ask for exact location, rent, deposit and viewing time in writing.
Avoid paying viewing fees to unknown people.
View the house physically before paying rent or deposit.
Meet in safe public/common areas when possible.
Report suspicious or outdated listings immediately.
Landlord/caretaker best practice
Keep your listings accurate, confirm availability frequently, upload clear photos, and use your correct WhatsApp number. This improves tenant trust and reduces unnecessary calls.
