What is your background?

It was this experience in the management of significant portfolios of rental property that lead to the creation of RentLizard.com.

 
Signing Up For An Account
How do I sign up?

If you are a prospective tenant, no sign-up is required to search (free) rental listings on our site. However, if you would like to receive email notifications of new rental property listings matching specific criteria, or to apply online for specific rental properties, sign-up is required. It's a very easy process. If you are not yet registered, simply click the "Register" button on the Home Page or Tenants Page and follow the instructions.

If you are a landlord and have not yet registered, simply select the "Register" button on the Home Page or Landlords Page and follow the directions to complete that registration.

Once registered, simply enter you email address and your password to edit any specific account information. By selecting the "Remember me next time" option at sign-up, you will be able to bypass having to enter your email address and password each time you come to the site. Instead, you will automatically be logged-in.

How will you use my information?

You information is simply used to provide you the service we offer. Read our privacy policy to learn more about how we protect your personal information.

Once I register on RentLizard, how do I activate my account?

After you enter the required information for registration, an email will immediately be sent to the email address you provided in your registration. Open that email and click on the provided link, or copy and paste that link into your browser address bar, to activate your account.

I never received a confirmation email after registering. What happened?

If you do not receive a confirmation email from RentLizard.com within a few minutes of registering, try checking to make sure it didn't end up in your "bulk" or "spam" email folder. Also make sure you are checking the email account for the address you registered with here on RentLizard.com.

 
Managing Your Account
I forgot my registration password. What should I do?

If you do not receive an email from us, try adding the email address help@rentlizard.com to your address in the event your email program is interpreting email from RentLizard.com as spam.

Posting on Craigslist
Will my Rental Listing automatically be posted to craigslist?

No. craigslist does not currently allow for the automation of rental postings to post ads for the benefit of others. You have to create a craigslist ad manually. We do create the HTML code and provide the capability for you to copy and paste the HTML code into the description box of your craigslist ad. (See instructions immediately below).

How do I create a craigslist post?

 

How do I get my Rental Listing posted to craigslist?

Once you've created your Rental Listing and prepared it for activation, you will see a link labeled "Post on craigslist". Clicking this link will send you directly to craigslist. On craigslist, you will need to enter some basic information in the subject area (including title, address, and rent amount), and then copy and paste your rental listing HTML we provide for you, into the craigslist posting description box.

Note: If you experience problems with the link, check to see if you have a pop-up blocker enabled. If so, turn it off (usually in your Google or Yahoo toolbar). If this doesn't work, you can still initiate a post by going directly to the craigslist site. Please see the craigslist instructions page for step-by-step instructions.

craigslist will send you an email to activate and manage your rental listing. You should save that email in the event you later wish to edit or delete that listing from the craigslist site.

Anytime you change your rental listing information on our site, the associated HTML information for that listing will also be updated. You can then simply edit or post new listings on craigslist using that HTML code.

If I modify or renew my listing, will the changes be automatically reflected on craigslist?

 

How will my rental listing look on craigslist?

Because your rental listing is being posted on another site that has their own specific restrictions, your ad appear a bit differently than it does here on RentLizard.com. Additionally you must read and abide by the craigslist terms of use . Please familiarize yourself with what is and what is not acceptable. We help create for you an attractive listing that will be accepted by craigslist and strive to abide by both the letter and spirit of the craigslist Terms Of Use. We hope our users will do the same.
