Protect Your Listings from Fraud

Rental scams are getting more sophisticated and more common.

Scammers are using real listing photos and property details to create fake ads, leading to “ghost renters” showing up at properties and putting both agents and homeowners in difficult situations.

That’s where Property Shield comes in.

How It Works

Property Shield actively monitors the web for suspicious activity tied to your listings so you don’t have to.

When something looks off, you’ll be notified right away and guided through a simple process to take action.

The 3-Step Process

1. Monitor
Property Shield scans the web 24/7. If a suspicious listing is detected, you’ll receive an instant alert.
