Hi everyone!
I’ll be moving to LA for work in the next couple of months. I’m in the Facebook groups for many of the surrounding areas and have seen several postings from people for sub-$1,000 rentals with similar verbiage in their descriptions. Only one person has stated on their profile that they are a “private landlord.”

I’m not overly familiar with this and want to know how legitimate these things can be? What should I look for to be sure it is? The price is more than right, but I don’t want to get scammed and this is just adding to the stress of a short fuse deadline to find a new place to live with three small birds in tow.

Thank you guys for any experience or insight you can share 🙏🏼❤️.

ETA: thank you everyone who weighed in. Definitely glad I asked and was listening to my gut on those.
