Should i put a down payment down for a house, if the owner didn't require much information from me? Ill explain more.?

This does, indeed sound very suspicious. There are people who commit fraud to bilk you out of money, so I would do some checking. If you google the address, you may hit on records of who owns the house. Or, you can go to the town hall and look up who the owner is. If it is him, then I think you will be okay. Typically there is not a "down payment" for a rental unit, however first month's rent and a security deposit is customary.

Do what you can to confirm he owns he house....Show more

You need to do more homework. Get his name then check with the tax assessors office to see if he owns the property. Why can't he (or his agent) met in person? If he insists the whole thing can be handled by email, look for another home....Show more

Sounds like a typicl Craigslist scam.

There is no property. Do not send any money....Show more

You generally need to put a down payment...Show more

I guess you didn't explain more.

Have you seen proof that this seller actually owns the house and has the legal right to sell it ?...Show more
