How do I connect my listing to Apartments.com using Rent Manager 12 or Rent Manager Express?

Connecting your listing refers to the process of syndication. Syndication is another way of describing the communication of listing information between a third-party service and Apartments.com. The following steps provide instructions for enabling the syndication of a property using Rent Manager.

Important: Apartments.com ILS integration with Rent Manager is only available to Rent Manager Cloud based clients. Integration is not available to Rent Manager Standalone clients.

Connect Your Listing Using Rent Manager

Navigate to Rent Manager and log in to your account.
Navigate to Admin > System Preferences > Online Listing > General.
Select the checkbox for Enable Online Listing under Provider Settings.

Note: Enabling Apartments.com in System Preferences enables all properties at one time. If you wish to enable Apartments.com on a property-by-property basis, refer to the Connect Your Listing on a Property-by-Property Basis section below.
