Luckily I've done this before so its will get very smooth. I need a clean person who can take a very good care of my apartment. Keeping it clean is my main concern. As I work on sea, right now on M/S Celebrity Equinox in Santorini, Greece. Over the years I rented my 2 apartments through Airbnb.com and I plan to use the same procedure again. If you plan to stay more then a month I could send you a booking link through them and you just plan your stay through Airbnb. There wont be any direct payments to my account or anything shady. I all ready have a superhost badge on airbnb an multiple reviews so every is good on my end. My only concern is about you. Can you be 100% trustworthy and keep it clean and tidy? I will be back at home in June 2017 but I have other arrangements to live in case you want to stay in that period as well. The rent is not negotiable and its a bit under the market with the condition to keep it nice and tidy.
Let me know if I should send you the booking link.
Keys will be handed over by a friend who lives nearby.
P.S. Unfortunately the friend who will hand over the keys will be the one who needs to say yes he/she looks tidy and will probably keep the place in good conditions and I all ready had 4 different people go in there to view it and my friend kind of wasted his time since 2 of them didn`t even show up and the other 2 didn`t left a good impression to my friend so he said no.
This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram, pre-paid credit card or bank transfer with a promise that you can have the keys to a property that does not belong to him.
Sounds safe. It's not!
At other times, he will ask for proof that you are able to pay the deposit and rent due to a string of time wasters.
This proof is in the form of a Western Union or MoneyGram payment to a lawyer,a friend or family member.
In either case, if payment is made and you give this person the details, they will collect the money.
You will not hear from them again.
All the details such as names, addresses, pictures etc. that the scammer uses in order to back up his story, are stolen from elsewhere.
If you are reading this because you are looking for property to rent, and you are in contact with this thief you are probably searching Craigslist, Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment before viewing, then it will also be a scam. Please forward the mail to me at the address in my signature line and I will investigate and list them if necessary.
