DomBazaar does not verify, handle payments, or supervise visits

DomBazaar is a listing platform. We do not verify property ownership, identity, or listing accuracy. We do not handle payments, deposits, or contracts. We do not arrange or supervise viewings.

Documents and messages are not proof by themselves

No document, receipt, account detail or message proves by itself that a person, property or transaction is legitimate.

Before you go to the property

Confirm these things in writing before you travel.

  • Confirm the exact address and building number — not just the neighbourhood.
  • Agree the date and time in writing.
  • Ask who you will meet and how to identify them.
  • Ask whether the property is occupied or vacant for the viewing.
  • Confirm that the price and terms shown in the listing are still current.
  • If you choose to reveal the number, save it from the accepted listing page or Messages before you leave.

Visit confirmation message

Send this before your viewing.

Before
I will come tomorrow.

No time, no address, no confirmation.

Better
Hello — confirming I will visit tomorrow at 14:00. The address is [building/street]. Please let me know if anything has changed. Is the price still [amount] per month including utilities?

Confirms time, address, and price in one message.

Before you pay anything

Do not transfer money before checking the basics.

  • Visit the property in person.
  • Ask what document or written authorization the contact can show for their role, then check it independently where possible.
  • Request a written agreement or receipt for your records, but do not treat either as proof that the transaction is safe.
  • Confirm the total amount, including deposit, agency fee, or advance.
  • Confirm account details in writing, and remember matching account details do not prove legitimacy.
  • Do not transfer money to an unexpected third-party account.
  • Keep all payment records and written agreements.

Payment confirmation message

Before transferring any amount, confirm the details in writing.

Before
I will send money now.

No amount, no recipient confirmation, no paper trail.

Better
Before I transfer, can you confirm the total amount is [X], and that this covers the first month plus deposit? Please also confirm the account details I should use.

Creates a written record of amount, purpose, and recipient. It does not prove the transaction is legitimate.
