Help me find the downside in my most recent scam:
Step 1: Obtain fraudulent real estate credentials.
Step 2: Obtain access to listings with keybox entry (this isn't hard to do).
Step 3: Scout promising empty 3 bedroom 2 bathroom houses for sale.
Step 4a: Advertise the selected property for rent in a local newspaper, at a steal of a price.
Step 4b: Plausible cover story should be that you are representing the property for rent and the owner has been forced to leave the country/state for a job opportunity. Preferably, never actually meet with the prospective renters in person.
Step 5: Remove the keybox. Have copies of the keys made and rent the property to as many people as possible, condition of rent is immediate money transfer to a previuosly setup out of state/country account. Fax them a bogus lease and leave the keys in their mail box. Cost will be fist and last months rent, plus damage deposit. Emphasize that this is a rush and close the deal quick.
Step 6: Take the cash, close your account and get out of town.
Personally, I don't see a downside and you should be able to clear $6 to $10K really quickly. Do you see any loopholes to this cunning plan?

many people who find the house/apartment/flat that they were renting
(legitimately) was getting foreclosed because the landlord was not paying the mortgage at all.
So? Well, not only do they have to move, but they are out the rent payments and usually the landlord (due to his financial woes) simply keeps the security deposit, if it isn't already spent.
As for you idea:
Moving/hiding and getting good false identifications would be the largest 'business expense'. I'd also invest in a good life insurance policy.

What agency will you represent? Will you show no one your face? People still do read newspapers, and if they don't they have friends who do. No one's going to see their house listed for rent? How do you turn over the keys? You don't think a potential renter would find it the least bit suspicious that the landlord or their agent lets them in to the house unaccompanied?

You better keep the training wheels on. On the other hand, prisoners who are about to be executed are forced to have a rectal plug installed so there's no spillage when they die. If you insist on going forth with this adventure, I suggest you invest in one of those, because something's going up there and if I knew that were the case I would definitely seek to exercise as much control as possible on my choice of items.

I hesitate to spill the beans because you probably deserve to go to a good juvenile detention center where they will give you a proper education; especially concerning offshore accounts, fax machines, call method tracing, etc.
