Hello,



We are pleased
that you have an interest in our house, Our lovely home is still
available for lease and we want responsible adults/family who are neat
and also believe that they have what it takes to take care of our house
as if it were theirs. My wife and I initially had it up for sale but had
a change of mind in leasing it out ourselves because the agent that was
in charge of our rental property was asking too much of an agent fee
and also making it difficult for people who cannot afford the rent, stay
away from renting my house.



The reason why
our house is up for lease is because I got transferred from my place of
work to Houston,TX , I will be away with my family for at least 4 to 5
years because of the love I have for them, I have decided not to sell
our house and also assuring them that we only have few years to spend
here and will be willing to lease it out to person/family who is willing
to assure us of taking absolute care of our home and pay their rent on
time.I will start by telling you more in regards me and my family. I
have a daughter named Leslie (20yrs) who attends University of
Houston,TX as a medical student, she has a lot going for her and she is
also down to earth in all that she does to keep us happy and when she is
back home on vacation, she also assist her mom in the house work when
am at work. I work as a Robotic Programmer & Welder/Fitter here in
Houston,TX and got married to a lovely wife who is a member of Joyce
Meyer Ministries . We will be very pleased if we can find the right
tenant to rent our home, a person who is a clean freak and does not
tolerate anything that has to do with dirt... we also would like to know
more about you and your family, your renting experience and how long
and when you plan moving into our home.These 3 bedrooms and 2 baths home
are very specious and neat.

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram or bank transfer with a promise that you can have the keys to a property that does not belong to him.

Sounds safe. It's not!

At other times, he will ask for proof that you are able to pay the deposit and rent due to a string of time wasters.
This proof is in the form of a Western Union or MoneyGram payment to a lawyer,a friend or family member.

In either case, if payment is made and you give this person the details, they will collect the money.
You will not hear from them again.

If you are reading this because you are looking for property to rent, and you are in contact with this thief you are probably searching Craigslist, Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment before viewing, then it will also be a scam. Please forward the mail to me at the address in my signature line and I will investigate and list them if necessary.
