Practical safety rules (still required)

  1. Never wire money, Zelle, crypto, or gift cards before an in-person tour.
  2. Verify the unit address and that the poster controls it.
  3. Walk away from prices far below the city median band (price bands page).
  4. Treat NoFeeNest caution / likely-scam badges as heuristics, not legal proof.
