Listing a Rental on Facebook Marketplace
One of the key strategies to fill vacancies swiftly is to maximize the exposure of your available properties. While Facebook Marketplace currently does not accept syndication from third parties like Rentec Direct property management software, they have streamlined the process for manually posting available rentals on their site, making it a straightforward task.
Listing a Rental on Facebook Marketplace
While Facebook has made changes and discontinued business pages on Facebook Marketplace, you can still list rentals as an individual. You can follow the steps below to add your listing (rental or home for sale) to Facebook Marketplace.
In your Facebook account:
- Click on the Marketplace icon
- Click on Create New Listing
- Click on Homes for Sale or Rent
- Upload your property photos. Facebook Marketplace allows up to 50 photos.
- Fill out the Property Details section:
- Use the drop-down menus to select a home for Rent and the Property Type (apartment/condo, house, or townhouse)
- Indicate the number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
- Price (periodic rent, monthly, weekly etc)
- Enter the exact property address
Note: You also have the option to add the square footage, lease length and date available, and other additional features such as heating or cooling, pet-friendliness, parking, and laundry.
- Choose where to post your listing (your profile page, other groups on Facebook, etc).
- Preview, then click on the Post option when done.
