We need to move from an IAC apartment to a house or condo. We both work in Irvine and we are scouring Craig's List ads for homes and condo's for rent.
But of course, I have heard the horror stories of renters moving into someone's foreclosure or about-to-be-foreclosed-on property and being forced out by the banks as they take it over and losing the deposit the home-debtor ran away with. Or the property is a short-sale and the renter gets whacked out by the new buyer, all of which the renter was oblivious to, two months ago when he moved in.
Does anyone know a safe or safe-er way to go about this?
