📝 How to Write a Rental Listing That Gets Results
Your rental listing is your property’s first impression.
And in today’s fast-moving market, first impressions are everything.
At Citizenz Properties LTD, we know exactly what makes tenants stop scrolling, click, and book a viewing. If your listing isn’t attracting enough attention — or the right kind of tenants — here’s how to fix it fast.
🔑 1. Start with a Clear, Attention-Grabbing Headline
Your headline should:
✅ Highlight the property’s best feature
✅ Mention key selling points (location, bedrooms, standout perks)
Example:
“Modern 2-Bed Apartment with Balcony | City Centre | Parking Included”
Avoid:
“2 Bedroom Flat to Rent” (too generic!)
🏡 2. Paint a Picture in the Description
Don’t just list features — sell the lifestyle.
✅ Instead of saying: “2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom”
Say: “Two spacious bedrooms, ideal for working professionals or a small family, with a bright open-plan living area perfect for entertaining.”
Use language that helps tenants visualise living there.
📸 3. Use Professional, High-Quality Photos
✅ Bright, well-lit images
✅ Showcase the best features (kitchen, living room, any unique amenities)
✅ Always include a photo of the exterior and any outdoor space
Tip: Properties with professional photos get far more enquiries and book viewings faster.
📍 4. Highlight Key Amenities and Location Perks
✅ Fast Wi-Fi
✅ Parking
✅ Proximity to transport links, schools, shops, parks
Don’t assume tenants will know what’s nearby — tell them!
💷 5. Be Honest and Accurate
✅ List the correct rental price
✅ Clearly state what’s included (bills, council tax, Wi-Fi)
✅ Mention any restrictions (no pets, non-smoking)
Transparency builds trust and saves time for everyone.
📝 6. End with a Strong Call to Action
✅ Example: “Viewings available this week — call now to book yours!”
Don’t leave tenants guessing what to do next!
