No she didnt want to rent it . She was calling to verify a tenant that wants to enroll their children  ( this house is in a very sought after school district ) .  She asks if I am the owner and what my personal address was .  ( to verify if I am the owner )  Then she realizes she knows me , she is  one of my customers .  She reads the tenants name , and I stop her right away . NOPE , they are not a tenant .  So I ask her to read me the lease , she says its 1 regular page , rent is $1000 a month utilities included .  In this county they also want to see a utility bill in order to register for school , so having utilities included is a great excuse for not having a bill . I tell her its a fake , my lease is like 12 pages , and I Never include utilities . 

I talked with her and she tells me this is a BIG problem in the county . Especially closer to Baltimore city .
