Want It Done for You?
If you're short on time or would rather leave it to the pros, we’ve got you covered. Call (661) 459-4755 and our team will fully set up your listing for just $119.
Step 1: Add Your Contact Info
Start by accessing your dashboard and entering your contact information. Give your property a custom name and choose whether to display your phone number. Travelers often prefer texting or calling directly, so we highly recommend making your number visible to maximize leads.
Step 2: Pinpoint Your Property Location
Your address is automatically locked in for accuracy, but you can enhance your listing by adding nearby attractions like hospitals or downtown areas. This boosts visibility on the map and helps tenants understand your property's surroundings.
Step 3: Fill in Key Property Details
List how many bedrooms and bathrooms are available, what the monthly rent is, and any additional fees like deposits, cleaning, or pet fees. Be sure to also check out our optional Damage Protection Plan, designed to give landlords peace of mind for one low monthly cost. Learn more at furnishedfinder.com/dpp.
Step 4: Highlight Amenities That Matter
Amenities such as Wi-Fi, parking, and laundry options make a big difference for traveling professionals. Take your time to write a thoughtful property description and mention what makes your space and neighborhood stand out.
Step 5: Upload Your Property Photos
Photos are one of the most important parts of your listing. You need at least two, but we recommend uploading several high-quality shots of both the interior and exterior. Use the star icon to select the photo that shows up in search results.
Step 6: Set Up Your Calendar
An accurate calendar is essential to get matched with tenants. Enter your availability and minimum length of stay. If you're also using Airbnb or VRBO, link your calendars to keep everything in sync.
Step 7: Turn On Notifications
Make sure you never miss a lead by turning on traveler alerts and customizing your match criteria. You can choose how and when you're notified, so you're always in the loop.
Step 8: Complete Verification
Furnished Finder uses Jumio to verify landlord identity for marketplace security. You’ll be prompted to upload a government-issued ID and take a quick selfie to complete the process.
Step 9: Go Live and Set House Rules
Once your listing is complete, it’s time to go live. You’ll receive a link to share your listing and can use the “House Rules” wizard to create a PDF with move-in expectations for your tenants.
Step 10: Prepare for Your Tenant
Now that your listing is live, don’t wait until you have a tenant to prepare. Be proactive:
- Purchase your Lease Package and begin customizing your state-specific lease.
- Familiarize yourself with tenant screening best practices to confidently review applications.
Being prepared means faster move-ins, better communication, and a smoother rental experience overall.
Whether you’re a first-time landlord or simply want a checklist to make sure nothing is missed, this process gets you in front of traveling tenants faster and more confidently. Get started today and enjoy a streamlined path to mid-term rental success!
