If Your Home Is For Sale, Watch Out For Scams on Craig’s List

If you have your home listed for sale, just a word of caution that they have been known to show up on Craig’s list as a rental.  We just had this happen to one of our clients whose house I have listed for sale.  It is not for rent, yet we received an email inquiry from a bona-fide customer wanting more information about the rental that she had seen on Craig’s list.    Our photos were on there, much of the property description was correct, yet neither our client or I put the property “for rent” on Craig’s list.     No one knows how it got there.     The rental listing was reported as a scam and it was ultimately removed but nonetheless, beware that this could occur with your listing!

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call us anytime.
