Premier Properties and OC Rentals

This company advertises on Craigslist and other internet sites. They claim to be a credit reporting and consulting service as well as a rental listing service. Consumers should be aware that the terms and conditions of the company's rental listing contract are not posted on their website. Based on a pattern of complaints received for this company it would be prudent to read and understand all terms and conditions of the offer before making a buying decision. Careful attention should be given to the company's cancellation and refund policies.~~Our experience with similar offers has been that complaints against rental listing services typically allege that the properties advertised do not exist or that the listings are not current and the properties were already rented were never for rent or authorized by the owner to be listed or do not meet the criteria of the person seeking the rental. Other allegations are that the properties listed were taken from ads in other sources such as newspapers or Internet websites. Refunds even if provided for in the contract are extremely difficult to obtain.~~California law requires companies offering rental listings to enter into a contract with you before accepting their fee from you and the contract is subject to certain requirements. First it must expire no longer than 90 days from the time you execute it. It must include besides specifically what you are seeking in a property a provision for refunding anything you paid over $50 to you if you obtain a rental elsewhere and a provision for refund if they do not provide you at least three available rentals meeting your specifications within five days after you paid your fee. It must also outline the small claims court remedy that is available to you.
