Craigslist Crises - BACKGROUND CHECKS BEFORE EVEN SEE THE UNIT?

[Monica Leamy]

Hi all,

My name is Monica, I love BP and I’m trying to get in to Real State, still in the educating myself phase and trying to find my niche. But my question has really nothing to do it my journey.. 

I have been helping my mom to relocate from Brazil to the US in the Greater Philly area, we have been on Craigslist trying to find her a place and everyone has been asking us to fill out a background and credit check BEFORE we even check out the place. So my question is, is this legit or people are just this evil nowadays?

Craigslist users, please let me know your thoughts! Any insight is much appreciated 😊 

btw looking for a room for my mom, if anybody has or knows anything, please let me know 😊

Thank you and hope your weekend is being awesome!
