Subject: RE: rental house
To: Con Warner
Hello,
Thanks for the email. Yes, the House is still available and will only be given out to the right person that will take very good care of the place and the facilities. Well i must let you know that the house has a lot of facilities like laundry facilities, air condition, internet and telephone access and car garage and other necessary facilities.
Well i must let you know that the house has a lot of facilities like laundry facilities, air condition, internet and telephone access and a car park and other necessary facilities. The Monthly Electricity Bill and Utils have been paid for up front for 1yr to this time and in the Kitchen it’s a gas Furnace. I have really decided to give out the house as a result of my transfer to Canypn Country, CA in my new place of employment.
I will be renting out the house for $750.00 (Including Utilities) and a security deposit of $700 and i am pet friendly for cats and dogs so $200 for pet deposit and I need to inform you as well that money is not the major reason why I am renting it out but want someone who can take care of it as if he/she owns it.
The Address of the property is: 2404 Rousseau Ct. Louisville, KY 40245
Pet: Allowed
Smoking: Out side
Lease Terms: 1-3 years
I was actually working with a Realtor earlier but noticed he increased the rent more than i expected so i told him i was going to get a new tenant myself because the way he increased the rent and deposit, the renters can't afford it and it can even scare tenants away more so, with that act, the house will be vacant for long that is why the house is still vacant till now.
So i have decided to rent it out myself that is why you can see the advert in Craigslist. i am not around now and i guess it would be better if you go check it out yourself and check in through the windows and its neighborhood. If you like what you see then we continue with other formalities
It’s fine if your credit is not good enough i am not after credit check but the most important thing is upkeep of the house Washer and dryer are included in the home. This is a long term transfer so don't be worried at all. But if you are willing to work with my situation, let me know so that we can discuss the rent further so i can send you an Application Form, Lease Agreement.
Cheers
Walter
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.
