To ensure high-quality leads, we recommend adhering to property marketing best practices. By providing information about your property, lease terms, the application process, and any credit score or income requirements within your property listing, you’ll spend less time qualifying leads and more time connecting with renters who are qualified to rent your property.

When you publish a property listing on Zumper, we automatically syndicate it, or list it, on Zumper & PadMapper for free. This helps multiply your exposure and get in front of more renters. If you would like to opt-out of this, go to Account Settings in the bottom left corner of your screen. Select Public Account Page and then Page Settings. Under Marketing Syndication, uncheck the box next to Publish to the Zumper Network. You will now be opted out and your listings will only display on Zumper. 

We display anonymized phone numbers on properties to protect your personal information as well as help with tracking leads. Another benefit is that your personal information is not exposed to potential bad actors on the internet, who could steal this for other scams or phishing attempts to gain access to your account. 

When an interested renter dials the anonymized number, it automatically re-reroutes back to the phone number associated with your account found in your account settings. 

If you would like this feature disabled and prefer that your exact phone number is displayed instead, contact us via the support request form with your account details and a member of our team will update your settings.

In order to determine a fair price for your rental property, you must take several factors into consideration such as location, number of bedrooms, square footage, and amenities, to name a few. It’s also important to take into account what similar properties in your neighborhood are renting for. We release a National Rent Report every month that can help you understand rental pricing trends. You can also view current and historical rent prices in your area here. 

If you are a property manager, you can post a building with multiple units on Zumper. When you create an account on Zumper, you must first indicate that you are a property manager. If you are a property manager and forgot to indicate this when you created an account, please contact our support team and we will make the appropriate adjustments for you.

3. From the next page that appears, you can input general information about the building such as building name, description, and photos. Beneath this, you will be prompted to add a floorplan. From here you can input a floorplan name, the square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, upload photos specific to this floorplan and set the monthly price.
4. Once you’re satisfied with your property details, click the Publish on Zumper button at the bottom of the screen! This will publish your building and the specific floorplan you have just created. 

If you would like to add floorplans (other units) to your building, please follow these steps.

If you’re encountering an error with publishing your building, please double check that you have an active, published floorplan. We require this in order to publish a building.

After you finish creating your property, you may notice that it is in a pending state. This simply means that our landlord team is still reviewing some details on your account before it’s fully active on our platform. This process typically takes about 24 hours, however, you can reach out to onboarding@zumper.com or fill out a support request form to expedite the process.

You can edit your active listings at any time to update details such as price, pictures, or your description. Unfortunately, you cannot edit listing addresses at this time. If you have made a mistake in the formatted address, you will need to delete your property and recreate it.

When you delete a property, it removes it from your account and our site. We recommend you only delete a property if you don’t intend to publish it again, or if you have made a mistake in the property address and need to start over. If you want to unpublish a property instead, check out this article: How do I unpublish my property?. Deleted properties cannot be recovered, so make sure you have the correct listing prior to deleting.

 Please note that all media and information associated with this listing will now be permanently deleted from your account. You will not be able to recover this specific property, including from the Renters tab.

Properties are automatically unpublished from our platform after 45 days of inactivity, meaning that no updates or edits were made to the property in 45 consecutive days. This ensures that inventory on our platform is up to date. 

We send an email 7 days prior to a property expiring with instructions on how to refresh it, as well as a unique link that allows you to control the status straight from your email.

If you would like to refresh your properties daily, simply move them between an unpublished and published state. 

Unpublished listings are still discoverable on Zumper, but only from an exact Google search of the property address. These properties are marked as “No Availability” so renters can no longer message you. Keep in mind, any contact information that you include in your property description will still be shown. To remove your property from Zumper completely, you will need to delete it.

Unpublishing your property will remove it from our search results, however, you will still see your property in your account in the event you want to republish it at a later date. You can unpublish your property at any time! Typically users unpublish their properties when they have found and screened a renter who is ready to sign a lease. 

To unpublish your property, please follow these steps:

1. Located on top of your screen is the Properties tab (https://www.zumper.com/manage/properties). Here you can view all your properties (listed and unlisted) and sort them by last modified, building name, address, newest, oldest, price (high to low and low to high). You can also use the search bar to find your properties within this tab.
2. From there, select the property you would like to unpublish. This will take you to a new page where you can manage the properties details
3. At the bottom of the details information, there is an unpublish button to click and confirm you would like to remove this property from the market.

Zumper supports the listing of a variety of properties such as houses, apartments, condos, and rooms for rent. When you create a new listing, you can specify the property type so that it’s easy for renters to find when they filter their results. 

Some of the most common types of properties are: 

• House: A stand-alone dwelling with no shared land or property with other residents. We refer to this as a single-family home. 
• Apartment: A unit or group of units that form a residential dwelling with shared walls, utilities, and often common spaces, typically managed by a property group or landlord.  
• Condo: Similar to apartments, however, condos are typically owned by individual parties rather than a property group.
• Co-Op: A residence where occupants do not own property but rather are shareholders of the community.
• Rooms for rent: A single room or rooms for rent in a shared apartment, home, or condo. If you are posting a room for rent, be sure to use the property type room. 
• Multifamily buildings: An apartment community with sometimes hundreds of units intended for use by many residents or multiple families, hence, multifamily. All buildings are required to have floorplans associated with them in order to be active on our platform. 

Currently, we do not support the listing of commercial or retail spaces, storage units, parking spots, garages, or for-sale properties on our platform.

Zumper partners with various companies to ensure your property has maximum exposure when you are looking to rent it out! When you post a property on Zumper, we send your property information to Zumper, ULoop, Padmapper, Movoto, ChatGPT, Microsoft Bing, and more.

If the property information is displaying incorrectly on a partner site, please get in touch with their support team directly.
