Trade Me rental import
Bring your Trade Me rentals into RentManager
Connect your own Trade Me account to bring active residential rentals into RentManager. Review each listing, match it to an existing property or create a new one, then manage the property and share RentManager application links.
Connect, review, then confirm
- Connect the Trade Me account that owns the rental listings.
- Review the active rentals Trade Me returns and choose an existing RentManager property or a new property for each one.
- Confirm your choices to create a property and draft rental listing, add a draft to an existing property, or link the advert to an existing RentManager listing. Your Trade Me advertisement stays in place.
Import details and common questions
You stay in control of the import
Review each import before confirming. New RentManager listings start as drafts for you to review and publish. Linking to an existing active RentManager listing preserves its content and photos. Import does not create a second Trade Me advertisement or a new Trade Me listing payment. Trade Me may limit updates to existing advertisements. Enquiries and applications use the RentManager links you choose to share. Historic Trade Me messages are not imported.
Which listing details can I review?
The review shows details Trade Me makes available to the connected account. Check the address and rent before confirming. If an address or weekly rent detail needed for a new property is missing, you can add it during review. Linking to an existing property leaves its details unchanged.
What about listing photos?
When creating a draft listing, bring across the photos available from Trade Me. If a photo cannot be imported, we will tell you so you can retry. Linking an advert to an existing active RentManager listing keeps its current photos.
Does import create another Trade Me fee?
Import does not create a second Trade Me advertisement or make a new Trade Me listing payment. Normal RentManager property and plan limits apply. Publishing or editing the Trade Me listing may depend on your plan and may have provider charges.
How is my Trade Me data handled?
You connect the Trade Me account that owns the listings. Imported details are added to your private RentManager account only after you confirm. Your imported property data is stored in New Zealand.
What if no rentals appear?
The import review shows active residential rental listings returned for the connected Trade Me account. If the list is empty, check that you connected the account that owns the listings and refresh the review. Only listings Trade Me makes available to that account can be considered.
