We do offer 25% discount for 12 months rent in advance. Anyway, I am not sure
when you are looking to move-in as the unit is not available for immediate
move-in or viewing until May 27th when the current occupant lease expires.
The current occupant lease expires May 26th, and the earliest viewing date is
May 27th, so if you are really interested I will advise you try and secure it
now so that you do not lose it to other potential renters who are also in
contact with me in regards to this apartment.
Please let me know if the timing works and if you wish to proceed.
Warm Regards,
Christopher Johnson.
This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram 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.
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.
To make reservation, you are to make deposit for the first month rent ($2,400) plus the security deposit ($1,500) which totals $3,900 directly to the landlord's account details below;
