If we could educate buyers to be more accountable of their money, our economy may not be as bad as it is today. Great information.

I am sorry for the delayed reply. For some reason my email did not tell me of the comment. So, there are a couple things you can do. #1 of course is go to Google street view and take a look at the home. See what you think, does it correlate to what the person is telling you. The second thing to do is go to the property appraiser tax website for the county. Here you can type in either the address or the owners last name and confirm that the name on the property is one in the same as the person you are calling. #3) If everything is good so far then I would attempt to google the person’s name and get an alternative phone number for the person OR if you have enough time the property appraiser will tell you the mailing address of the home owner even if they are an absentee owner. Send a letter to the address asking for a call back on a different telephone number. So if you typically use your mobile phone number for all your vacation rental calls then put your home number in the mail. If all else fails SKIP the Craigslist ad and find an ad with a local property management company with a website, better business bureau records, etc… much safer. Larry
