Room for Rent and other rental scams

Hello,

I am sorry for my late response to your email as i have been busy lately, It gives me great joy to know that you are interested in my lovely house, its still very much available for rent and ready for immediate occupancy. I am sure you would be asking yourself why my rent is low, that's because i am not too keen about the amount in renting the house out but to whom i am renting the house out to and I spent less time in the States so I could not get a hold on any Realtor to handle this rent issue, although it was when I knew how long we are going to stay in Africa that I decided to rent out the house. More so , the initial plan was to sale out the House.which I tried, but sometimes the agents inflates the prize and it takes longer to sell i am telling you this in case if you find the house on another website, that is the old advert ,but had to change my mind as my Wife is not OK with us selling the house. My intention is to rent my house to someone that is responsible and be ready to take great care of the house as if it were his or hers, that is why the rent is low.I am very certain that you would love the comfy of the house.

I would like you to know that i am giving this house out for rent because i have been posted to West Africa as an Pediatrician (Kid'sDoctor) for Malaria and would spend couple of years before i would be through with my assignment here and if not because of this, I wouldn't have been renting the home out because me and my family resides in the house and we love the house so much. Me and my family have decided that we would be moving to our other home in Las Vegas, NV when we get back to the states, I would like you to complete the tenant application form below and please be honest with the details to enable us choose the right tenant.

Welcome, and thank you for posting. :D

This part is a tell tale sign. I also find it amusing that he adds "Kid'sDoctor" for clarification, something I have never seen or heard a real pediatrician do.

Please let us know if you have any questions about this scam.
