How to Spot a Fake Real Estate Deal Before It’s Too Late

Buying land or property is one of the biggest investments you can make. Unfortunately, scammers are everywhere, and too many people lose their hard-earned money to fake real estate deals. At Favourmiz Realty Ltd (RC 1892717), we believe knowledge is the best protection. Here’s how to identify red flags before it’s too late:

1️⃣ No Proper Documentation

If the seller cannot provide essential documents such as:

  • Certificate of Occupancy (C of O)
  • Governor’s Consent
  • Deed of Assignment
  • Survey Plan

🚩 Walk away immediately. Legitimate property must have verifiable papers.

2️⃣ “Too Good to Be True” Prices

If the land or house price is far below market value, it’s often because there’s a hidden problem: litigation, government acquisition, or outright fraud. Always compare prices in the same area.

3️⃣ Pressure to Pay Immediately

Fraudsters often push buyers to “pay today or lose it.” Real estate should never be rushed. A professional firm like Favourmiz Realty gives you time to verify everything before committing.

 

4️⃣ No Site Inspection Allowed

If the seller keeps making excuses not to take you to the site, that’s a major red flag. Always do a physical inspection — and bring a surveyor if possible.

5️⃣ The Seller is Not the True Owner

Sometimes, people sell properties that don’t belong to them. Confirm ownership with the Land Registry and only deal through trusted, registered real estate companies like us.
