Trustworthy apartment in Rotterdam
Hi everyone, I'm making this last attempt despite the situation being quite tense. Long story short, I signed a contract for an apartment in Rotterdam, spoke with the current tenant, spoke for a long time with the owner, and ran a Kadaster check (it's not registered to the woman who claims to be the owner, but to a man she claims is her deceased husband). Now, with a contract in place, all I need to do is make the transfer, right? Yet, I'll never be entirely certain this isn't a very elaborate scam. How can I get past some issues that are unfortunately resolved with "trust me bro"? I don’t even blame the owner, it’s just that remotely there is only a limited amount of confirmations I can possibly get. Am i being paranoid?
I could give out other details, it’s just that I’m not sure how to move forward. (I don’t feel like giving up on this chance, since I need a place to stay for August, but if I get scammed i’m done for). If there is someone willing to help me out, or give me advice, I’d be happy to receive insight. Thank you.
