Remember to check the landlord before paying!

When you rent a home, it is very important that you check the landlord before you transfer money to the landlord. Especially if the landlord is a private person or does not have a legitimate website or otherwise seems suspicious, the landlord must be checked in every way. You can read more about the good rental process here.

Never transfer money unless these things are met!
1: Never transfer the deposit/rent for the home to a foreign bank.
2: Never transfer the deposit/rent for the home to someone you haven't met in person.
3: Never hand over the deposit/rent for the home until you have a contract signed by both parties.
4: Never transfer the deposit/rent for the property before you have checked whether the housing provider has the right to let the rental property in question.
5: Never transfer the deposit/rent for the property until you have shown the property.
