My account was switched to a business/dealer profile after identity verification. I’m an individual renting out my own condo, not a business. How to convert this back to a personal account?

I’m sorry to hear the account was registered as a Professional Account Naema. You’ll be pleased to hear, the account has been moved to a Private Account, so you will be able to post your free real estate rental ad at your convenience.

I am sorry to hear you are experiencing some posting issues, it seems the account was mistakenly registered as an Auto Dealer. Do not worry! I can fix that right away. I am pleased to inform you the account has been reverted back to Private Seller, so you may post your free ad at your earliest convenience.
