Many property managers have asked us for better ways to display your Rentals.com listings on your own website. Here’s a way you (or your webmaster) can do it.
You can now put your account number at the end of the web address below to create a page that shows just the active listings on your Rentals.com account. We’ve stripped off all the navigation and other information from the page so that you can frame this page within your own website.

Why would you do this? It enables you to display your Rentals.com listings on another website, for example your company website, within the context and navigation of that site.
Here’s how to set it up:
Substitute your account number for RC0313D0 in the web address above. You can find your account number by logging in and then clicking on My Account. Your account number is the first item listed.
Then, use the website address you have just created to show that page as part of your website. Using an iframe is probably the best way to do this. It’s kind of like putting a cutout into your webpage and showing another web page through that cutout. The following code snippet is what you would put within one of your own pages. You would vary the height, and if necessary the width, of the iframe cutout to fit your site.
<iframe height=”800px” width=”620px” frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”auto”
src=”http://www.rentals.com/Pmlistings.aspx?AccountNumber=RC0313D0″> </iframe>
Let me know if you give it a try, and I’ll post a link to the page on your website where you’ve embedded your listings.
