ANSWERS

I am a first time user, how do I list my property?
There are only a few steps to listing your property. First you need to create a user account. You can do this by clicking on “Get Started Here” located on the homepage. Once you fill out the information needed on this page your account will be created. This gives you access to a management control panel where you can add/edit properties. Your next step is to input your property information. Select your property type and fill in your property's information. At this point you will have a option to preview your property. After all your property information is input you will be asked for your billing information. Once payment is complete your property will be active and viewable on our website. Congratulations you're done!

How much does it cost to list my property?
It is FREE to list your property on AllStudentRentals.com. Please take a few moments to create an account and input your property information. You then will be given the current price list. The only time you pay AllStudentRentals.com is when you receive a qualified lead and we bring your business.

What is considered a lead?
It is FREE to list your property on AllStudentRentals.com. Please take a few moments to create an account and input your property information. You then will be given the current price list. The only time you pay AllStudentRentals.com is when you receive a qualified lead and we bring your business.

What if I want to stop my listing from running?
Simply login to your control panel, and "Archive" your listing. Your property will not be renewed at your next anniversary date and your card will no longer be charged each month.

Will I ever get double charged for the same lead?
You will never get charged twice for the same lead. We monitor emails and phone calls and track for duplicate leads. Please note that leads are tracked per month per property so you may receive the same contact information for different properties or for different months.

How do I make changes or updates to my property?
To make changes or updates to your property take seconds. Simply enter you username and password to login. Click on the "Go" button and you will be signed in and brought to the management console page. Click on "edit" and you will see a drop down list of all properties, click on the property you want to edit and make any necessary changes. Follow the onscreen steps to save your changes.

Can I preview my listing before I have to pay for it?
Yes you can! This is one of the best features in our management control panel. After inputting all property information you will then proceed to the next step which is to preview your listing.

How do I ad photos to my listing?
You will be prompted while inputting your property's information. You may add or remove photos at any time by editing your property from the member's console. You may upload unlimited pictures.

How can I tell if my property is active or not?
You can find all of the information you need in your control panel. Simply login to your account by filling in your login information and clicking on the “Go” button in the upper right hand corner. After you click to login you will be taken to the control panel. Click on “My Listings” or “Our Listings” to see active properties. To see in-active properties click on the “Archive” tab.

How can I maximize my property listing?
There are several things you can do to make sure that you get the results you want from your listing. The first is to sign up for a decent amount of time. This seems obvious, but many owners tend to skimp on their listing length. If a tenant likes your property, they may not need to move right away or they may tell a friend about your complex. When those prospective tenants come back to the site, you'd better hope you didn't stop your property's listing. The longer you list your property, the better the results. Secondly, you need to have a photo. A photo is worth a 1,000 words and it is in your best interest to have as many as you can. Other things like accepting online applications, office hours and detailed amenities also have been proven to improve listing success.

How do I activate an archived property?
You can easily activate listings every time they become vacant again by clicking on the “Archive “ tab and then clicking on the STAR to the left of the property picture on the listings view.

What are metrics?
On the “Metrics” tab you can see a detailed pie chart and histogram of property views. These numbers indicate how many times a prospective renter views your listing on our website.

How many pictures can I upload?
Unlimited. The more pictures the better!

How long of a description can I have?
Unlimited. The longer the descriptions the better!

Can I pay for my listings with a Check, Credit Card, or Invoice me later?
Currently we accept Visa, Master card, Discover, and Amex. We also offer an “Invoice Me” payment method where we will send you an invoice and you can pay with a check.

How do I get a promo code?
Promo codes are given out during special promotional events. They can also be found on certain advertisements and marketing collateral.

I created an account, how do I login?
Simply enter in your login username and password in the upper right hand corner and click “Go.” If you forgot your password or username click “For Username/Password?” and we will send you your password.

What are users?
We understand that multiple property managers work under the same property management company.
