Overview

Sometimes the listing sites may display outdated information, relative to what you have in RentEngine. This guide will show you how to check and update it.

Step 1 - Wait up to 24 hours

RentEngine sends information to the listing sites in real-time but depending on the listing website, it can take up to 24 hours for a change to be reflected.

Step 2 - Check that the listing is coming from RentEngine

Open the listing on the third-party site and scroll to the last sentence of the marketing description.

If the listing is coming from RentEngine, it will always include RentEngine’s SMS opt-in language at the end of the description.

If the SMS opt-in language is missing, the listing is coming from another source, such as:

  • Your old showing or leasing software

  • Your property management system

  • An MLS feed

  • A manually posted duplicate

Remove or disable the duplicate listing at the source. RentEngine cannot control listings published by other systems.

If the SMS opt-in language is present, please report it to RentEngine (see instructions below)
