How scam score works

See risk before you message a landlord

Illustrative samples — not live ads. On real listings, Student unlocks the full score and flags so you can skip the dangerous ones.

Low risk · 88/100

Known source, price near area median, deposit within legal limit.

Medium · 55/100

Ask what “all-in” includes and confirm BRP in writing before you visit.

High risk · 22/100

Price far below median + payment before viewing — treat as a red flag.

On live listings the score stays locked until Student (or Sprint). Free visitors still see search + alerts; paid plans show the full 0–100 score and the flags behind it.

Student outcomes DutchStudentHousing

“I was panicking about finding a room before the semester started. DutchStudentHousing helped me filter listings faster and the scam checks made me feel safer before contacting landlords. I also liked the alerts — I didn't have to refresh Facebook groups all day.”
Sofia International student · Eindhoven · TU/e
“Cercavo una stanza da fuori Paesi Bassi e avevo paura delle truffe. Con DutchStudentHousing ho capito meglio cosa controllare prima di mandare documenti o caparra. Le guide e gli alert mi hanno fatto risparmiare tempo nelle settimane più stressanti.”
Luca International student · Rotterdam · Erasmus University
“Am Anfang war ich echt unsicher, welche Anzeigen seriös sind. DutchStudentHousing hat mir geholfen, Risiken besser einzuschätzen und nicht blind auf „zu gute“ Angebote zu reagieren. Die Stadtinfos und die Alerts waren besonders hilfreich, als die Zeit knapp wurde.”
A.P. International student · Delft · TU Delft
“Ik zocht vanuit het buitenland en vond Facebook-groepen best chaotisch. Via DutchStudentHousing kon ik sneller zien welke kamers de moeite waard leken en waar ik voorzichtig moest zijn. De checklist rond scam/deposit gaf me meer rust voordat ik berichten stuurde.”
Emma International student · Utrecht · Utrecht University
