How to bypass the "trap" of renting a house without looking for an intermediary company is very difficult. He has a trick, so you should have countermeasures. In many interviews, the reporter came up with several tricks to prevent fraud.

Identify yourself.-check. Consumers looking for an intermediary company through advertising should first look at whether the company has legal intermediary qualifications, as well as industrial and commercial licenses and tax registration. Generally, intermediary companies with legal qualifications are more formal, and the possibility of problems is small. Even if there are problems, consumers can complain.

Sign.-look. When signing the power of attorney for renting a house, you should read the terms of the contract carefully to prevent some terms from harming your own interests, and ask clearly about the terms you don't understand. Don't worry when signing the contract. Generally, those deceptive intermediary companies know the mentality of renters. If you are in a hurry, go directly to your own bureau. If you are in a hurry, someone will sign the contract. Also, the Beijing Municipal Administration of Industry and Commerce has issued a normative text of the housing intermediary service contract, which is relatively safe to use.

Pay, pay-slow down. The purpose of all kinds of deception is to pay the agency fee, so consumers should cover their pockets and not rush to pay. As soon as the money is paid, the initiative is in the hands of swindlers, and consumers will only be "slaughtered". When making payment, a formal special invoice for service industry should be collected. At present, when collecting agency fees, many intermediary companies use a lot of irregular invoices, often use receipts, and the official seal mark is also very vague. Some of them do not give evidence to consumers, which makes it impossible to give evidence when appealing. If you receive irregular invoices or invalid bills, it will be difficult to complain, and it will also help illegal intermediaries evade state taxes.
