We are looking to rent a home in in the town of Sonoma. We are beginning a remodel of a property we own and would like to find a beautiful house to rent with a one year lease. I have been looking for one moth and have found nothing yet. Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Constance

Constance, Have you checked Craigs List? Beware, however, of big rental scams. NO PERSONAL or BUSINESS information (checking accts,Soc.Sec#'s) over the internet!! When renting a property in today's scam world I would ask to see identification of the party you are dealing and ask if they are the owner. If they are the owner then ask a local realtor to pull up the "tax records" to verify they really ARE the owners!!! If they are a property manager then see their ID and get a DRE Lciensing number. Check them out!!
We have seen many horror stories of prospective tenants giving personal financial information only to find out it's a big scam!! Careful. I use a property manager named Sue Carrel. Her number is: 707-237-5199 Ext: 705
