Activate a Vacancy

When your next vacancy is ready to market, this step-by-step guide will show you how to activate it in RentEngine.

1. In your PMS, mark the unit as available and turn on 'Publish to Website'. This is how RentEngine automatically imports the property data for you (do not press 'Publish to Internet')
2. Head to RentEngine and click on the Properties tab
3. At the top of the properties list are your "Incomplete" vacancies. These are the properties that RentEngine detected as ready to activate.
4. Activate each property by clicking Take Action > Edit Property
5. Review the Property Details. Make sure to double check the Parking, Laundry and Floor Number fields. Then press Next
6. On the next page, select your showing type and assign to Subteam (if applicable). Then either add the contact info for the leasing agent (if Accompanied) or connect your lockbox (if Self-Guided)
7. Click Next and confirm that the price, photos and additional details are correct. If not, you can edit them directly and then press Next

Once you've finished, you'll see this confirmation that the vacancy is updated and ready to syndicate!
