Avoid bad surprises! ProveHome certifies that the person you're talking to actually has access to the home they're renting to you.
A seaside flat for two weeks. You can't go and see it: everything is handled remotely, by message. The listing is perfect, the price is right. Before you transfer, one single question: does the person writing really have the keys to that home?
The owner proves they're real. The home seeker verifies it in 30 seconds.
Prove you have physical access to the property
Verify the listing before you pay
The verified owner received a paper envelope at the property address, with a one-time code. By entering it they prove two things in a single move.
Home seekers never pay. The owner pays once to certify their property — no fee, no subscription.
All quick answers, split between renters and owners.
On the listing you read the owner's phone and the property address. You enter them on our site. In 30 seconds we check if that pair (phone + address) matches an owner who certified on provehome.com. If yes, we send them an email with two buttons: AUTHORIZE / REFUSE. They click, you see the result here. If no, you see "not certified" and can invite them yourself.
Yes, always. No account, no card, no verification limits. Only owners pay to certify their property, just once per property.
Never. We only use it to match against the phone declared by certified owners. We don't save it in plaintext, we don't share it with third parties, we don't show it to anyone. You also leave no data — verification is anonymous.
You see "no confirmation in time" within ~30 minutes. It means: proceed with caution. The owner might be offline or might not be the real lister. Without explicit confirmation there's no real proof — don't send deposits.
Email and SMS are free and forgeable in seconds. A letter physically delivered to an address is real proof: only whoever picks up the mail at that mailbox can collect it. A scammer doesn't receive the mail of the house they're pushing, so they can never certify.
30 seconds to enter phone and address. A few minutes to get the result (the owner needs to click the link in the email). If they don't respond within 30 minutes, the request expires.
Yes, anywhere a phone and property address are visible in the listing. ProveHome is a verification layer above the classic platforms, which don't check who's posting.
No. The owner only receives: "Someone wants to verify your property, do you authorize?". They don't see your name, phone, email, IP or any personal data. It's like an anonymous doorbell: they know someone's asking for confirmation, they don't know who.
Enter email + phone + property address, pay €9.99 once, and we ship a paper letter to your address with a code and a QR. You scan the QR (or type the code), confirm with your phone, and your property is certified for life.
€9.99 one-time per property. No subscription, no renewals, no recurring fees. Pay once, certification for life at that address.
A standard paper envelope with: your address, an 8-character activation code (XXXX-XXXX format), a scannable QR, and instructions on how to activate. The letter arrives within a few business days.
You receive an email with two buttons: AUTHORIZE or REFUSE. One click and done — you don't have to explain anything, you don't have to reply to chats. If you authorize, the tenant sees "verified" and proceeds confidently. If you refuse or ignore, they see "no confirmation".
Only if you're actually dealing with that person at that moment. If you don't recognize the request, ignore it or click REFUSE. Confirming carelessly means giving a scammer proof of authenticity they don't deserve.
Yes, each property has its own certification (€9.99 each). You can use the same email/phone for multiple properties — you'll receive a different letter for each.
Never. Email, phone, and address stay internal. The tenant only sees "verified" or "not verified" — never your data. When you authorize, they know the lister (you) is real, but they don't see who you specifically are.
Contact us and we'll revoke the certification (free). The new owner can certify themselves. Certification is tied to the address + the person who picked up the letter, it doesn't survive a change of hands.
Certify once that the property is yours. €9.99 per home, forever — without exposing your data.
