Please see the following rules and suggestions our company is taking to protect you.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>NEVER pay cash or wire money to a possible landlord you have never met. We <strong>DO NOT<\/strong> accept cash.<\/li>\n<li>When contacting BBRents, only call initially our 513-737-2640 phone number. If you are assigned to a leasing agent, they will share their individual number after your initial call.<\/li>\n<li>Our properties are all water marked with BBRENTS.COM. If you see a property on another website, without the water mark, chances are it is fraud.<\/li>\n<li>When meeting to sign a lease, please ask the leasing agent for their company ID. This will assure you are meeting and talking with our staff. Do not share information unless you have seen their company ID.<\/li>\n<li>ALL of our available and coming soon properties are listed on our website.<\/li>\n<li>All emails from BBRents.com will have an @bbrents.com email address. None of our leasing agents use gmail, yahoo, or hotmail for company emails. Anyone can setup emails from the &#8220;free&#8221; email accounts and may try to impersonate us.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Here is a list of articles that may help you identify a scam.<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/realestate.usnews.com\/real-estate\/articles\/8-red-flags-to-help-you-spot-a-rental-scam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">USNews.com &#8211; 8 Red Flags to Help You Spot a Rental Scam<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usa.gov\/housing-scams\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">USA.gov &#8211; Housing Scams<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trulia.com\/guides\/how-to-spot-a-rental-scam\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trulia.com &#8211; How to Spot a Rental Scam<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Help Us Stop Fraud in Rentals Today there are scammers, cheats and thieves in every walk of life.
