Hello,
I am Chang Chiayuan and thanks for showing interest in my property which is currently available now. Please feel free to check with the property assessor to be sure you are dealing with the owner of the house, if you are not interested in moving anytime soon then this house is not for you as i am not looking to wait forever before renting it out, i posted this house on Craigslist for rent not because i am in need of money but to have someone live there and take good care of the house as if he/she own it. I got a new job in Texas and i wouldn't want the house to be locked without no one living in there, i was working with a Realtor earlier but i noticed he inflated the rent and security deposit so i took the property off him and decided to rent it out myself and that was why i posted the advert. i am sure by now he would have removed his sign and if he hasn't he will very soon.
I will be renting out the house for $1,650.00 (Including Utilities) water,gas,electricity and garbage and a security deposit of $1,700.00 (refundable) $250 for each pet as pet deposit (negotiable)please no aggressive pet.
THE ADDRESS OF THE PROPERTY IS : 10032 Wild Orchid Way, Elk Grove, CA 95757
The house has a washer and dryer with hookups , interior is clean and kitchen is perfect and equipped , home is in 100% condition.
Note: I am currently not dealing with any Realtor, any conversation or dealings with them is at your own risk. Our email conversations will be kept just in case of any unforeseen circumstance arises. So with being said i expect that you deal with me directly as the owner of the property. Lastly i do not want to waste each others time in reaching a reasonable conclusion about this property so i hope we can converse in timely manner and reach a conclusion soon enough.
If you are willing to work with my situation, let me know so that we can discuss the rent further, thanks.
Regards.
-Chang Chiayuan
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.
