How do I know a St. John's rental listing is not a scam?

Treat any St. John's listing as unsafe if the person refuses an in-person or video viewing, is unreachable by phone, or asks for an e-transfer deposit before you have seen the unit or signed a lease. Those three signals together account for the overwhelming majority of rental fraud reported in Atlantic Canada.

Are landlords on MapleRentals.ca verified?

Yes. Every landlord advertising a St. John's rental on MapleRentals.ca passes identity verification and property-ownership confirmation before a listing goes live, and listings are screened by automated scam detection. Renters can also report a suspicious listing, which flags it for review.

Do I have to pay a deposit before viewing a St. John's rental?

No. You should never send money for a St. John's rental before viewing the unit and signing a lease. A legitimate landlord will let you see the property first. A request for an e-transfer to hold a unit you have not seen is the single most common form of rental scam.

How do I arrange a viewing for a rental in St. John's?

Open the listing on MapleRentals.ca and contact the landlord through the listing page. Because landlords are verified before publication, the contact details belong to the confirmed owner of the St. John's property rather than to whoever posted the ad, which is what makes a viewing request safe to send.
