Rentec Direct now automatically removes online listings when you move in a tenant, saving property managers and landlords valuable time by streamlining tasks with a new marketing feature enhancement.
Keeping your rental listings current can help you avoid unnecessary work, such as responding to emails and inquiries for a rental that is no longer available. Beyond saving you time on tasks you no longer need to worry about, promptly removing old listings can lead to missed opportunities. Many syndicated sites, like Zillow and its affiliates, require rental listings to be kept current and accurate. By promptly removing old listings, you’ll always be ready to advertise a newly available property quickly.
Rentec Direct property management software, included with all Rentec Pro and PM accounts, features a comprehensive lead, tenant, and marketing management system that’s seamlessly accessible across the software interface. This enhancement allows you to easily manage all aspects of your property marketing and management on computers, tablets, and mobile devices. This New Feature Enhancement automates the removal of online listings upon tenant move-in, eliminating the need to access additional screens. Whether you manage 15 or 1,500 properties, this new enhancement streamlines the removal of online listings, saves you time, and helps ensure your online marketing is current.
How it Works
This new automated feature enhancement requires no setup. When you move in a new lead or tenant, the “Remove Online Listings’ option is checked by default, automatically delisting your property from syndicated sites. If you want to keep the listing online, simply uncheck the option.
Here’s how to use this enhancement in your Rentec Direct account:
- Click on Properties
- Right-click on a property and select Place New Tenant
- Under Online Listing, Remove Online Listings is checked by default, so no additional steps are required
- Once you’ve added the tenant information, click on Place Tenant
Final Thoughts
This New Feature Enhancement isn’t just a simple addition; it’s a time-saving feature that’s bound to become a favorite quickly.
