Thanks for your interest in my house. My house is still available for rent and is located at 94-211 Loku Pl #120 Waipahu, HI 96797 quite and safe, I'm looking for a responsible person/family to occupy and maintain the house now that i am not around. I just traveled to Brooklyn, NY for a program called SERVING IN MISSION (SIM).
I will be away for two years or more that is why I have made up my mind to put up my house for rent to whom ever that will take good care of it. However, my initial plan was to sell the house but it was not successful because the Realtor raised the price which made it difficult for me to sell before leaving Waipahu, HI. So you ignore the sign post cause i have stop dealing and contacting the Realtor for too much fees i paid and the Realtor was trying to rip me off. You can drive by and check the the house and neighborhood and get back to me for further discussions because i need a tenant urgently and i can also forward the application form to you, if you are interested.
HOUSE DESCRIPTIONS:
Property type: Single Family Home
Bedroom: 3
Bathroom: 2
Size: 1163sqft
Monthly Rent: $2000
Security Deposit: $1000
Utilities included in monthly rent
Pet: Accepted.

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.
