Seller Beware: Top 3 Scams to Watch Out For
Fraudulent buyers: Scammers may pose as interested buyers and send fake cashier's checks or wire transfers to cover the purchase price or earnest money deposit. Always verify the legitimacy of payments and work with a reputable escrow company to handle funds.
Phishing emails: Cybercriminals may target sellers with phishing emails, attempting to obtain sensitive information or access to online accounts. Be cautious of unsolicited emails and verify the sender's identity before clicking on any links or providing personal information.
Unlicensed agents: Beware of individuals claiming to be real estate agents without proper licensing or credentials. Scammers may take advantage of sellers by charging fees for non-existent services or mishandling sensitive information. Always verify an agent's license and work with reputable professionals.
​
By being aware of these common scams, both buyers and sellers can take the necessary precautions to protect themselves during the home-buying or selling process. It is essential to work with a trusted real estate agent, verify information, and use secure communication methods to minimize the risk of falling victim to scams.
