Renting from a private landlord, answered

What does "Private Landlord" mean?

These homes are listed directly by the property owner, not pulled from the MLS. You deal with the landlord (or their property manager) directly for questions, applications, and showings. Dayton Relo just hosts the listing.

How are listings vetted?

We review and vet every listing before it goes live. Our way of keeping this a scam-free space with true, local, private landlords. We check that the address, rent, and details are complete and reasonable. It is still a good idea to use normal caution: verify ownership, never wire money before seeing a lease, and meet in person when you can.

How do I list my rental?

Use the "List Your Rental" form. It takes a few minutes and there is no fee. We review and vet new submissions, usually within a business day, and the listing goes live once approved.

Are these the same as the MLS rental listings on /listings?

No. MLS rentals are professionally managed and syndicated through Trestle. This page is a separate, owner-listed directory. Both are worth checking, use the link below to browse MLS rentals too.

Renting is one option. Buying might make more sense.
