Wall Real Estate Limited asking for a rent as a "last month rent deposit" on application submission. Scam?
It's my first time renting and this company is asking for the last month rent upon submission of my application and saying it will be returned if I don't get approved for the unit. They gave me an application form, I saw the unit, spoke with people on the phone.
The house has been available for like 2 weeks at least and there is a "renting" sign outside the house.
I searched for the company and only saw one review about them entering your house to inspect it but nothing about it being a scam.
The addresses also change.
Has anyone dealt with them before? Does this sound normal or shady? They want the deposit in Certified Cheque or money order.
Thank you!
