Rental scam prevention matters

I manage housing groups with 500,000+ members, and many rental scams pressure victims to send deposits for apartments or rooms that do not exist. The purpose of this tool is to slow the process down, document the parties, clarify the deposit terms, and encourage ID verification and notarized signatures before money changes hands.

Important: A roommate agreement is not a substitute for legal advice. However, getting the parties identified, the agreement written clearly, and signatures notarized can help reduce later disputes over identity, deposits, occupancy, guests, pets, furniture, storage, payments, and house rules. Notary Ninjas, LLC can provide remote notarization separately where legally appropriate.

Why notarization is encouraged

The idea behind the roommate agreement is to validate the parties' identity and get the agreement notarized before a deposit is made whenever possible.

Notarization helps confirm that the person signing appeared before the notary, presented acceptable ID, and signed the document. That can be useful when parties later dispute who signed, what was agreed to, or whether a deposit was authorized.
