Safety Tips
Stay safe while finding your perfect home in Wroclaw
Always View Properties in Person
Never pay a deposit or rent without seeing the property first. If you can't visit, ask for a video tour.
Look for Verified Badges
Verified listings and users have been checked by our team. Look for the green verification badge.
Keep Communications on Platform
Use Hoomie's messaging system to keep records of all conversations with landlords.
Be Wary of Unusual Requests
Never wire money or pay via gift cards. Legitimate landlords accept standard payment methods.
Verify Landlord Identity
Ask for identification and verify that the person you're dealing with owns or manages the property.
Trust Your Instincts
If something feels wrong, it probably is. Report suspicious listings or users to our team.
