Add a room for rent
Give each room its own name and listing targets under the correct property or unit.
On this page
Check the property and parent unit before adding rooms. Review any existing lease for that space.
Step 1: Choose room rentals
For a new property, go to Properties > Add property, choose the property type and answer Yes to Will you have room rentals? Complete the room fields that appear before choosing Continue.
- Answer Yes to Will you have room rentals? to reveal room setup.
- Enter each room’s name and target amounts before continuing.
Step 2: Open the room form
For an existing property, open it and choose + New > New room when available. In Unit, select the parent unit or Whole home.
- Choose New room to add a separately rented space.
Step 3: Enter each room’s details
Fill in Room name, Target rent and Target deposit. Use Add another room for another space, or Duplicate room and update the copied details.
- Select the unit this room belongs to.
- Use a distinct room name and review the rent and deposit targets.
- Choose I’m done only after reviewing the room details.
Step 4: Save the rooms
Review the names, parent rental and amounts, then choose I’m done. Target amounts are for the listing; lease and payment amounts are set separately.
Step 5: Prepare the room listing
Open the saved room’s Marketing tab. Review its photos, description and listing details before publishing. Saving or duplicating a room does not publish it.
Before publishing a duplicated room
Give the room a distinct name and check its rent and deposit. Review its photos and description separately; do not assume the listing is ready because the room was duplicated.
Keep the listing unpublished until its details describe the correct room. Complete any required verification shown in the publishing flow.
Keep the room and lease separate
Choose the exact room when creating its lease. Adding rooms does not transfer an existing whole-home lease or change its charges.
Check for an existing whole-home listing before marketing rooms in the same space. Do not advertise overlapping availability.
Check the result
- Rooms are clearly named under their parent rental and ready for a separate listing review.
FAQs
Can I add more than one room?
Yes. Choose Add another room or Duplicate room, then give each room a unique name.
Does saving a room make it public?
No. Review and publish its listing separately from Marketing.
Does Duplicate room copy every listing detail?
Review the name and target amounts, then check photos and description separately before publishing.
Can I switch an occupied home to room rentals?
Review its existing lease and listing first. Adding room records does not move the tenant or change the lease.
Will all rental websites show a room in the same way?
No. Room categories and presentation vary by destination. Check the published destination page when available.
