hello, follow these steps: 1. avoid "super agent" written posts (very fancy texts, too many details, etc) 2. price lower that average on the market is risky 3. no deposits upfront online, only after seeing a house. 4. no full month/year deposits ever. 5. ask who is the real owner when visiting, who will you pay, how and how much. 6. avoid someone is pushing you to pay quickly 7. ask if you will have direct contract with the owner, or sublease (be very cautious with sublease). good luck and let us know if you need any help, we would be glad to help you
