Avoid sellers who can’t show the actual title or official developer docs. Always meet in person and verify at the Registry of Deeds.

Good question scams are getting more sophisticated these days. Watch out for listings that use stock photos, offer “too good to be true” prices, or rush you to “reserve now” without a proper viewing. Always check the developer’s accreditation, and ask for a copy of the title or tax declaration before paying anything. It also helps to cross-check the property on legit sites or through the assessor’s office to confirm it really exists.
