GUIDE TO LISTING

Follow these simple steps to have your property viewed by thousands of Olympic visitors:

  1. Click on the LIST NOW button on the homepage. This will take you straight to the registration page, where you can enter your contact details so that we can keep in touch with you about your property.
  2. Once you have submitted this information, you will be taken to the User Control Panel to list your property. This online form will take 5 - 10 minutes to complete. Be sure to fill in every field to maximise the appeal of your listing, and the exposure your property will receive through searches.
  3. The title of your property listing will appear in searches as well as at the top of your listing. Keep this brief and catchy.
  4. The Introduction also appears in searches, and is a brief summary of the information you will provide in your Detailed Description.
  5. In your Detailed Description, highlight the features of your property, and clearly describe what you will be providing during the rental. Visiting guests like to know details of the bedding configuration, number and size of televisions, whether cable TV is provided, internet accessibility as well as access to nearby amenities and facilities. It will work to your advantage to provide as many details as possible in your description so that the guests are clear on what is being offered. Please do not list payment conditions or rental rate in your description, as these details are covered in other sections of the listing and website.
  6. Entering your Property Location will ensure a map is embedded into your listing, highlighting the proximity of your property in relation to Olympic venues. Your address will not be visible to viewers of your listing, and is only used for calculating the proximity to nearby points of interest.
  7. Your Property Details will appear at the top of your listing, and some will also appear in searches. It is important to list these details as accurately as possible, as these will be verified by a property manager once a rental has been secured.
  8. The next section is quite simple and quick. By checking the box next to the Amenities and Kitchen Appliances, your listing will indicate these items as being provided and included in the rental.
  9. Finally, you are asked to enter your pricing information. It is a requirement that all listings contain pricing information for at least the month of February. You may have already discussed a rental rate with an RFTG member or a property manager. If you are not sure what to charge, please contact us to discuss rates. Alternatively, you can browse through the website to see what prices comparable properties are being listed for. You can list a number of different rental periods by different names, and you can use the calendars to adjust the dates for that particular rental period. Once all fields have been completed, be sure to click Add to Database so that your listing will come through to our system.
  10. Once you have completed the Property Details form, you will be taken to the Photos section. Here you will be able to add photos of your property and its surrounding area to your listing. As many of our clients are coming from overseas, they rely heavily on the photos to get a sense of the property they may be renting. It is important to have as many photos as necessary to give a clear indication of your property, and it is also important that these photos are of high quality. If you would like to engage the services of our resident photographer, please visit our Services tab. To add a photo, click the Browse button and select the photo you wish to upload from your computer. Click Add Photo, and it will appear below. Once you have uploaded all the photos to each section, you may choose the main photo that will appear on your listings page, as well as delete any photos that you no longer want. To change the order of the photos, simply click and drag them into position. From left to right, top to bottom, this will be the order in which they appear on your Listing. Be sure to click on Save Changes when you have finished.
  11. The final step towards completing the listing process is the payment of the Listing Fee. On the photos page, you can either click on the 3rd step at the top of the page, or you can hit Click Here when you have finished adding photos. This will take you through to the payments section. Choose the payment that applies to your listing. You can only choose one at a time, but once you have been directed to your Paypal Shopping cart you will have the option to Continue Shopping if you wish to go back and choose more items, such as Featured Property Advertising or Photo Service. Check the quantities for each item are correct, and then select Proceed to Checkout. You do not need to have a Paypal account to complete the payment, and even if you do you will still be able to complete the payment without logging into your Paypal account. Simply click Continue and proceed with entering the necessary details. Be sure that the Name and Billing Address are those that are associated with the Credit Card you are using. When you have completed those details, click on Review Order and Continue. If you are prompted to Log In to your Paypal account because it recognises your email address, you will have the option of continuing without logging in. Once your payment has been processed, your listing will be active within 24 hours (next business day).
  12. You can edit your property listing at any time by Logging In to your User Control Panel.

NO COMMITMENT - It is important to understand that there is absolutely no commitment on your part as the property owner until an agreement is reached and signed. You may add new listings, withdraw existing ones, and edit every piece of information at any time. Listing fees allow us to market our offer to clients around the world, and do not represent any commitment on your part.

EASY - We strive to make the process of renting out your property as easy as possible, while keeping in mind the importance of safety and protection of your premises and belongings.

Please see below for details on types of listings and promotional services currently offered by RFTG.

LISTING FEES

All property listings are charged a flat listing fee of £149 (except when specified otherwise under any special offer). This fee is used to offset the costs involved in advertising your property worldwide.

COMMISSIONS

When listing with RFTG, you can choose to have us answer all property enquiries for you, or you can provide your own contact details in your listing. If you would like RFTG to receive and deal with all enquiries on your behalf, we will charge a low reservation fee of 6.2% from any rental fee secured via our website.

If you would like to deal with all enquiries yourself, simply enter your contact details in the body of your listing, then all enquiries and requests will be directed straight to you, and we will take no commission at all.

FEATURED PROPERTY ADVERTISING

Your listing will appear as the Featured Property on RFTG. This advertising feature will showcase your property as it moves through a slide show of your property images. Every visitor to the site will see your listing, as it will appear on every page of the website. For £49, you will receive 5 days of advertisement in the Featured Property spot on RFTG. Contact us today to arrange for your listing to appear in the Featured Property spot.

LONDON HIGHLIGHTS ADVERTISING

Your property will appear on the front page of the website alongside 6 other properties. For £29, your property will be featured in this position for 7 days, showcasing it to every visitor to the site. Viewers will be able to click on your property from the front page, and will be taken straight to your property listing. These listings also appear on the majority of search pages in the column to the left of search results.

Please keep in mind that for the Featured Property and London Highlights sections, your property will be an integral part of our front page design and "look", and we reserve the right to choose photos, modify placing or approve or reject properties. We thank you for your understanding.
