Renting is a journey, and RentCafe.com is here to make it easier — and maybe even a little enjoyable. That’s why we’ve introduced two new features designed to simplify your search, keep you organized, and give you a better shot at landing that dream lease.
With notifications and My Account preferences, you’ll have the tools you need to stay on top of listings and present a stronger profile to landlords. Let’s take a closer look at how these updates can make your rental journey smoother from start to finish.
Stay in the loop with notifications
Your time is valuable, and constantly checking for new listings can be exhausting. Notifications remove that hassle by sending you alerts the moment a new listing matches your saved search or when there’s an update on one of your favorites. Whether it’s a price drop or a brand-new apartment you’ve been waiting for, you’ll be the first to know about it without lifting a finger.

Build a strong profile with My Account preferences
Finding the right home means knowing what you want and showing landlords you’re a reliable applicant. With My Account preferences, you can create a complete rental profile by adding details like your rent budget, credit score, guarantor information, and personal preferences.

It’s not just about the numbers — you can also specify must-have features like the number of bedrooms, parking and in-unit laundry, but also pet policies and more. This helps you focus on listings that truly fit your lifestyle and gives landlords a clear picture of what you’re looking for.
Think of your preferences as a rental “resume.” Having your information organized and ready means you can apply quickly and confidently when the right place comes along.
Did you know? You can search smarter with custom filters
Save even more time by using filters to zero in on what matters most. Whether it’s a building with a high rating, a specific property type, or amenities like gyms and pools, you control what you see. Need pet-friendly apartments, a balcony, or places with in-unit laundry? Just check the right boxes, and your search will only show the rentals that fit your needs and budget.

With these features, finding the right apartment becomes less stressful and more efficient. Stay effortlessly up-Fto-date, keep your profile ready, and search smarter so you can focus on what really matters.
