Is Monk & Bear Safe? Your Questions Answered
Safety isn’t an afterthought — it’s the core of how Monk & Bear works.
When it comes to house rentals, trust is everything. You’re opening your door to someone new, or stepping into a stranger’s home for a visit. We get it — that’s a big deal.
If you’ve ever searched for a rental, you’ve probably asked
yourself:
“What if the owner turns out difficult later?”
“What if
I visit and feel unsafe or uncomfortable?”
“What if someone
misuses my contact details after I enquire?”
These are real fears — and they stop many rentees from exploring better options. That’s exactly why Monk & Bear was built with your safety and privacy in mind from the very beginning.
1. Every Rentee is Verified
- All rentees must complete ID verification before accessing addresses or visiting-times.
- Government-issued ID is required (e.g. Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID)
- Phone number is verified
- Duplicate or suspicious entries are auto-flagged
This keeps bots, brokers, and bad actors out of the system. Unlike listing portals, Monk & Bear verifies all rentees before they get visit access.
2. Police Verification Support
- Tenants are guided through police verification
- Owners receive a verification copy on request
- This adds legal confidence to the entire process
It’s optional — but strongly recommended.
3. No Random Calls or Messages
You won’t get spammed. You won’t be harassed.
- No tenant gets your phone number
- No rentee can call or message another rentee
- All communication is controlled by Monk & Bear systems
If you’ve ever felt anxious or worried about listing your house online because of too many unwanted phone calls from strangers, then Monk & Bear has solved that problem.
4. House Visits That Are Safe & Structured
- Visits happen only in pre-chosen 10-minute slots
- You decide your availability — e.g. Sundays 10:30–10:40am
- Visitors must show ID at the door
- No unplanned visits or walk-ins
- No direct conversation between rentees
It’s efficient, respectful, and designed to protect your time and space.
5. You Stay in Control — Always
- Remove your listing anytime
- Stop visits with one click
- Switch between Visiting-On and Off
- Ask for Monk & Bear help in case of concerns
Your data, your house, your rules.
