So I went on Craigslist and there are a couple of deals there, but some that seem a bit sketchy.
I can't possible believe that rent can be so cheap in Tampa. How reliable is the craigslist site or should I skip it altogether?
I am a little leery thinking of those news stories of people who go to see a rental and get robbed or something. Does anyone have an alternative site that I can look up rentals that are legit and safe? Or in your experience, personal or otherwise, craigslist is pretty reliable and the rent prices I am seeing are the going rates? I have rented from three different "landlords" on Craigslist.
Each one has proven to be the worst landlord ever. Here's the stories: 1 First landlord was in Brandon.
After raising the rent, he then moves into the living room, curtains off the entire thing, then moves somebody into the garage where he was staying. The hot water heater went out and he didn't have money to fix it. It stayed out for a month. He didn't give us his real name or a lease agreement as he owed money to the IRS and didn't want them to know he was making extra money. We quickly realized we were sharing it with the most irresponsible woman I've ever met.
