As a property manager, you know that rental scams are unfortunately all too common. Scammers can post fake rental listings on Craigslist and Facebook marketplace, lure prospective renters to properties they don't own, and fraudulently collect security deposits or rental fees. At Showdigs, we understand the challenges that rental scams pose to your business, and we're always looking for ways to help you protect yourself and your tenants.
That's why we're excited to include ILS monitoring on every self-showing property. We'll use all the rental information about the property (address, pictures, price...) to scour Craigslist and Facebook for fake rental listings. If one is detected, we'll automatically report it as a scam and have it removed from the site.
We want to be clear that no feature can catch 100% of scams, but ILS monitoring is another layer of protection against rental scams.
