As many times as necessary throughout the day. We make changes as fast as we
can after we receive them from the property owners that advertise with us. Most
pages will post the time and date of the last update at the bottom of the page.
Sometimes you may need to refresh your browser as some computers will save a
previously view page for an extended length of time. To manually refresh your

How far in advance are properties listed for rent? |
|
|
|
We recommend owners
list their properties as much as 90 days in advance, but no less than 30 days in
advance of it becoming available for move in, but it does
depend on the preference of the property manager. Some owners may only be able to list
30 days in advance or when they receive notice their existing tenants are
leaving. |

I'm searching for a place well in advance of most of the listings on the
site. What is the best way for me find a property? |
|
|
|
Keep checking the site as it is updated daily. Find a listing of a property
that interests you even if it is currently available and follow the link in the
ad to see what other properties the owner may have. That link will take you to
that particular owner's individual page where you may find other properties that
owner has that are not posted on the classified page. Contact that owner to
inquire about future availability of a specific property or something you are
looking for. |

I found a place I liked on the site but when I contacted the owner it was
unavailable or I was redirected to another property. Why the bait and switch? |
|
|
|
On occasion,
property managers forget to let us know when they lease an
available home. We highly encourage managers to keep their listings current and usually
there really is no financial benefit to them to keep listings that are not
current. Sometimes we may miss removing an ad for a property listed in
multiple sections on our site. Please email us to report any inaccuracies or
unavailable listings on our site that are not clearly marked. |

Can I advertise my apartment or home for sublet? |
|
|
|
Yes. We do
provide this service for residents who have a need to sublet
the property. We highly encourage you to check with your
property manager first to make sure that subletting is
allowed. They may have resources or waitlists for your home
already. After receiving authorization from your management
company, contact the Metro-Rentals.com Advertising and
Marketing team to begin placing your advertisement. |
