Tell me, please, is it normal that immediately after the inspection of the condo in Thailand, the agent asks for a deposit and constantly hurries with it, allegedly after half a day we do not guarantee places

After I found a suitable option for myself (the apartment was not yet free) made an advance payment of 50% of the first month, but politely asked to write a receipt, the hostess without problems agreed to write + attached a printed photo (her id + money).

I don't know if the rush is normal, maybe she wants to close the deal as soon as possible. When I was renting, I transferred the deposit for the first month as soon as possible, so that they wouldn't take the apartment away from me. I was not cheated and everything was fine. I transferred the first month rent to an agent, and then I gave the deposit for two months to the landlord. Thus, the owner himself paid the agent's commission, but as if through me) All this was prescribed in the contract. It seems that the preliminary act for the deposit (document) was sent to me in tbsap, and the contract was brought already to the transaction. But I do not know how often there are cases of fraud. Perhaps I was lucky) When renting, it is important to pay attention to the cost of utilities, all bills before you paid (or written in the contract that will be paid), the noise around, whether all of the equipment (including outlets) works. I don't know what else, the rest depends on your criteria)
