Please be cautious of rental scams requiring upfront full-year rent payments, which occurred recently in AU rental markets. To prioritize client property security, we claim that ALL our partnered apartments DO NOT require full-year rent prepayment.
*Any losses occurred due to such issue should be borne by the tenant.
