Hi sorry I can't help with the specific request. I just want to make sure you aren't getting scammed, so many rental scams right now it's crazy. I listed a rental property a while ago and the next thing I knew, the pictures of the apartment I took were all over Facebook and Craigslist with different contact information and they were collecting deposits from sight unseen renters.

My general rule of thumb is that if the realtor/manager/owner can't provide a live video walk through I would be skeptical and require some other form of verificaiton. Hate to say it but that's the world we live in now.

If you are dealing with a realtor I'm happy to verify contact information for you in a private message.

Either way good luck with the move and I hope it all goes well. Simsbury is awesome!

Use a site like TinEye to do a reverse search of the images -- if they show up elsewhere, it's probably a scam.
