- Published: .
Hyrenbostad.se has a zero-tolerance policy towards fraudulent rental listings and dishonest landlords. All new rental listings are reviewed and verified before they are published on Hyrenbostad.se. We also use a range of automated system checks to help us identify suspicious listings and attempted fraud. However, it is always important to use common sense when searching for a rental home.
How we verify rental listings
To provide a safer rental search experience, Hyrenbostad.se uses both manual verification and automated checks of rental listings and landlords:
- All new rental listings on Hyrenbostad.se are reviewed and verified before they become visible to users. If our staff detect attempted fraud or a fraudulent listing, the listing is rejected and the landlord is blocked from using Hyrenbostad.se.
- When a landlord registers or creates a rental listing on Hyrenbostad.se, our system automatically checks the user's information. If required information is missing, the rental listing cannot be created on Hyrenbostad.se.
- Information registered on Hyrenbostad.se is retained in accordance with our established retention periods and applicable data protection legislation. This includes user information, details of advertised rental properties, and certain technical information about users. Personal data is not retained longer than necessary for the relevant purposes or as required by law.
- Hyrenbostad.se automatically checks the rent per square metre for new rental listings. If the rent per square metre falls below a predefined threshold, our verification system flags the listing so that our staff can investigate it further during the manual review process.
Ongoing monitoring of suspicious listings
In addition to verifying new rental listings, we continuously carry out security checks on listings and advertising activity. If we detect attempts to misuse Hyrenbostad.se as an advertising platform, we take action to stop the misuse.
Have you found a suspicious or fraudulent rental listing?
If you come across a listing that appears suspicious or potentially fraudulent, you should contact our customer service team and send us the link to the listing. This allows us to investigate both the rental listing and the advertiser more thoroughly.
