在591租屋网看到非常喜欢的套房，但房东是在遥远的英国人，附上信件内容请各位版大
看看，没有租屋经验，怕是诈骗阿
房东首先抱歉只会用英文沟通，并介绍他的年纪，工作，家庭，当初房子是为了买给在台湾念书的儿子，儿子毕业回英国了所以要把房子租出去，由于因为台湾没认识信任的朋友,所以他会透过仲介，并且负担仲介费，同时也问了我一些基本问题如下
· How many people would be living in the property?
· When would you like to move in?
· What term/length lease would you like?
· Do you have any pets?
· When are your most suitable times/days to view the property?
If further interested, please give me some information about yourself (age, li
festyle or whatever you think makes you a good tenant).
待我回答后以下是房东回应
As i told you before , i found an agency who will handle everything (Airbnb Re
ntal Property) . Maybe you heard about them since they are very popular . Usin
g Airbnb Rental Property involves three parties: me as owner, you as a potenti
al tenant and Airbnb as a responsible third party authorized to proper conduct
of the transaction.
This is the agency website : https://www.airbnb.com/trust .
This are the viewing steps :
1 - To start the process i will need your info(full name, delivery address and
a cell phone number where you can be reached).
2 - I will go to the Airbnb Rental Property office to deposit the keys and the
ownership documents .
3 - Airbnb Rental Property will check the ownership documents and the apartmen
t registration address .
4 - If the documents are legal , Airbnb Rental Property will send you the invo
ice agreement(via e-mail) where you will have all the details about this agree
ment + payment information .
5 - When you will receive the invoice, you’ll have to transfer the payment (o
ne month of rent + the security deposit) to Airbnb Rental Property, according
to the instructions from the invoice. The deposit will be just a formality, an
d it will not commit you to rent my apartment.
6 - The payment will remain in the custody of Airbnb Rental Property until you
will check the apartment and move in .After you will pay the deposit,Airbnb R
ental Property will send an agent to your registered address (in the next 24-4
8 hours) to make the delivery . The Airbnb Rental Property agent will help you
to inspect my house and sign the legal documents .
7 – If you will like my apartment, you will sign the contract and you will be
able to move when you desire . If ,for any reason, you will not be satisfied
with my property, the Airbnb Rental Property agent will return your payment .
The refund will be made in cash, immediately.
The entire viewing process will take 2-4 days. If you want , i can send you so
me pictures of my family, my passport,Police ID in order to prove my identity
. Because it is my fault that I can not personally come to show you the apartm
ent, I will pay the agency services fees.
之后我问房东可否看到房子才付第一个月租金和一个月押金，以及airbnb rental proper
ty哪里可以看到他的身份和物件，以下是对方的回复
I will also tell you why the agency request this kind of advance payment ...As
i told you before, Airbnb Rental Property will send an agent from UK to deliv
er the keys and to help you inspect my apartment. What if you will not appear
to the viewing? In this way the agency will be sure that the potential tenant
will follow the inspection .
I don't have posted the apt. on Airbnb I will go directly into a Airbnb office
to start the process , because they will verify everything ( ownership and my
identity ) .
This is how it works in this kind of distance rental agreements.
最后又重复声明可以寄家庭照，护照，工作证来证明他的真实性
文长，不好意思，请各位大大帮我看看，急着找房又很喜欢这个物件阿T_T
