Hello, We are pleased that you have an interest in my house, My lovely home is still available for lease and I want responsible adults/family who is neat and also believe that they have what it takes to take care of my house as if it were theirs. My husband and I initially had it for sale but had a change of mind in leasing it out ourselves because the agent that was in charge of our rental property was asking too much of an agent fee therefore making it difficult for people who cannot afford such rent. I am not after the rental fee but an absolute care for the property.
The reason why my house is for lease is because I got transferred from my place of work to Atlanta GA, I will be away with my family for at least 4 to 5 years because of the love I have for them, I have decided not to sell our house and also assuring them that we only have few years to spend here and will be willing to lease it out to person/family who is willing to assure us of taking absolute care of our home and pay their rent on time. I will start by telling you more in regards me and my family. I have a daughter named Jennifer (18yrs) who attends University of Atlanta GA as a medical student, she has a lot going for her and she is also down to earth in all that she does to keep us happy and when she is back home on vacation, she also assist us in the house work when im at work. I work as a Robotic Programmer & Welder/Fitter here in Atlanta GA and i'm a member of Joyce Meyer Ministries . We will be very pleased if we can find the right tenant to rent our home, a person who is a clean freak. We also would like to know more about you and your family, your renting experience and how long and when you plan moving into our home. These 3 bedrooms and 2 baths home are very specious and neat 1,248 sq ft.

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.

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.

Hello,
So good to hear from you, like i told you before i was living there with my family and our puppy but presently my family and I are here in Atlanta GA, we never had it in mind that we would give our home for rent we just went for a transfer and will be back in 4yrs. We have the document and keys of the our house here so you are free to drive by to view the outside of the house, i will not allow you to touch any thing there for now just drive by to view the out look of the house and get back to me for rental application. you are free to do that. After you must have taken a view of the house, get back to me for rental application form or can i email you the rental application form now? Here is my phone number (678) 460-7124

I am very pleased that you wrote us regarding my home at579 Whitesage Rd, San Marcos, CA 92078 I have also made it known to anyone renting my home that my objective is making sure that the house is kept very neat. Utilities includes Electricity, water, gas while appliances includes refrigerator, Stove, microwave, dishwasher, Washer/Dryer, Garbage etc.... I initially wrote you that we had plans of selling my house but had a change of mind to lease it out since we will not be staying more than 5 years.

I really know that God has lead me to a wonderful family like yours, as i was planning on selling our home initially thinking that no one can take care of my home when we are gone but with the help of my wife, we are able to think properly before selling our home and have found out that renting it will be the best option for us. You have also said a lot that pleases us and we have also seen how wonderful you and your family can be when you move into my home. My concern have been solved by you and i believe that all you said should be done the right way in ensuring that i trust you of becoming my tenant. I also plan on making our tenant family friends when they move in.

If all arrangement goes well, we will have the entrance keys and other relevant document in a hard copy paper shipped to your present home address for you to move in at your convenient date. Our home is beautiful and need no amendments. All you have to do is bring in your belongings. I also have Internet cable in my home as we speak, and will like you to take absolute care of my house when you move in. As soon as you get back to me I will be emailing you the rental application form for you to fill and get back to us with your information so that we can proceed.
