Yes, it matters. The whole purpose of “RedWeek verification” is that RW independently confirms that the advertising entity is in fact the legitimate owner of what they advertise. In short, someone trying to rent out an exchange (a practice clearly prohibited by both RCI and II) could never get a rental listing “RedWeek Verified”, as they obviously cannot provide ownership proof that they simply do not possess in the first place.
That said, it appears that RedWeek has now moved toward requiring that ALL listings get RedWeek Verified. That will provide security for all RedWeek rental listings, but it also creates additional cost for both the owner / advertiser and the renting tenant.
