Kebanyakan urusan hartanah berjalan lancar, tetapi penipu memang menyasarkan pembeli dan penyewa yang jauh atau baharu dalam pasaran. Mengetahui helah biasa memudahkan anda mengenalinya. Baca ini sebelum anda menghantar sebarang wang.
Tanda-tanda amaran
- Harga jauh lebih rendah daripada rumah serupa berhampiran. Tanya mengapa.
- Tekanan untuk membayar sekarang, for example “another buyer is waiting”.
- Bayaran sebelum lawatan, especially to reserve a rental you have not seen.
- Bayaran ke akaun peribadi. Purchase money goes to your lawyer’s client account or an account named in the signed agreement.
- Pemilik yang “berada di luar negara” and cannot show the property, so you must pay first.
- Penyenaraian disalin: the same photos under different names, prices or places.
- Perubahan butiran bank saat akhir by email or message. Confirm by phone on a number you found yourself.
- Tiada nombor pendaftaran. Only a registered estate agent may carry on estate agency business. See choosing an agent.
- Janji visa atau pulangan terjamin tied to a property.
