Hi XXXX,
If we decide to proceed with this transaction, I will have to contact rent.
com and provide them all the
necessary information, so they can start the process right away. I will need
your full name and address for
that. You will receive a notification from Rent.com shortly after that,
together with all the instructions to
follow and the invoice as well.
Regarding the payment, you will be instructed to deposit the money, first
month rent plus one month
security deposit to a Rent.com account.They will hold and insure your money
until you check the apartment
and decide if you want take it or not. That is how their buyer protection
policy works. As far as my
concerns, I will be glad to know that Rent.com has the possession of the
money during the delivery period.
That is my insurance.
As soon as the funds have been deposited into their account, they will
immediately start the shipping
process. The keys and rental contract will be delivered at your address in
no more than 3 working days. You
will be given a ten days inspection period from the day you receive the keys
and contract at home. If you
decide to hold the apartment, then you will have to authorize Rent.com to
release the funds to me, and the
transaction will be completed. If you will not be satisfied with the
apartment, you will be able to send the
keys and contract back through the same service and ask Rent.com to return
the funds to you.
Though I am sure you will love the apartment, it is good to know that you
do have this second option
available. If you wish to proceed with renting the apartment, please provide
me your full name and address
so I can initiate the deal through Rent.com right away.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Christine
感觉似乎有点不对头的样子。看房子就需要交两个月的押金?而且似乎整个过程看不到
人似的,以后万一房子有问题,
岂不是也要如此折腾?不知道大家有谁在boston erea 从这个网站上租过房子?
难道这就是传说中的骗人中介公司? |
