The #1 sign that you are being scammed out of renting from us is if you are being asked to apply for one of our homes somewhere other than our website. We only accept applications and leasing funds through invitationhomes.com. Protect your Invitation Homes username and password. Our employees will never ask for your confidential login information.
A few other common warning signs of a rental scam include:
- Abnormally high security deposits
- No background checks required
- Eager requests for cash or wire payments that may include an emotional plea
- Deals that feel "too good to be true"
- Bad grammar or a lack of photographs in fraudulent ads
- Requests to provide your Invitation Homes username and password
