STAYING SAFE ONLINE:
While most people genuinely aim to assist you in finding your next home, despite our best efforts there will unfortunately always be a small number of fraudsters attempting to deceive you into sharing personal information or handing over money. We strongly advise that you always view a property in person before making any payments, particularly if the advert is from a private individual. If visiting the property isn’t possible, consider asking someone you trust to view it on your behalf. Be cautious, as fraudsters often create a sense of urgency, claiming you need to transfer money to secure a property or book a viewing.
