Avoiding Scams and Avoid Getting Scammed

We hear it again and again, "I had a home rented, but they cancelled on me at the last minute!". The truth is, sometimes things happen and reservations cannot be fulfilled. But much of the time when we hear this same thing about the same companies over and over, we know it is more likely that a better reservation came along and the first renter was booted.  For the renter, there is little recourse. What makes matters worse is that these same companies are also the most likely not to refund the customer's money.

As always the best way to avoid getting stung is follow a few simple rules.

• Avoid deals that sound too good to be true.
• Avoid renting from owners and companies that quote high capacities but only display pictures of one or two bedrooms on their web sites.
• Avoid prices that seem to low for what is quoted. the home may in financial trouble or in a bad neighborhood.
• Avoid companies that do not restrict parties and events. Their homes are likely targets for anti-vacation rental enforcement.
