Rent in Rome without getting scammed

Fake listings are everywhere: a "landlord" asks for a deposit up front, then disappears โ€” and the apartment belongs to someone else. On SafeRentRome every listing is checked: the apartment is real and the landlord is the real owner.

What "verified" means

Each listing shows exactly which of these checks were completed

1

Identity

The landlord's ID is checked by our team. We never publish it.

2

Ownership

We confirm they own the apartment or have the right to rent it (property records, utility bills, agency mandate).

3

In person

Where possible, we visit the apartment and compare it with the photos.

4

Live video

A live video call with the landlord inside the apartment.

5

Your safety

Our rule for every listing: no money changes hands before an in-person viewing and a signed contract.
