I live in the United States and I've never heard of anything going on like this. Wow. Although, I've mostly rented places from established apartment complexes. When I've looked at places owned by individual landlords, they've always met me there, or at least, I thought it was them meeting me there. I wonder if anyone has tried to pull this on me before.

Unfortunately your advice falls a bit short under that situation. Good advice Athol, however most rental properties I’ve ever seen are not listed with any real estate agent.
