The purpose of our Buy & Sell Exchange Zones is to provide some additional peace of mind to those who are buying, selling, or trading property online.

Protect Yourself During a Buy & Sell Exchange

  • Complete your transaction during daytime hours only
  • Use the buddy system when possible. Bring a family or friend with you, or at the very least, let someone know who you will be meeting, the time, and the location of the exchange.
  • To reduce the potential of falling victim to fraud, never complete a buy and sell transaction by mail
  • When meeting in person, always inspect goods you wish to purchase before giving money to the seller
  • Limit the amount of personal information you provide
  • Stop. Pause. Think. If something seems too good to be true, it likely is.
