Claiming a listing someone created for you
Sometimes your property reaches Zi-Find before you do. There are two kinds of link you might be sent, and both let you take over your listing without paying anything.
1. A claim link from the Zi-Find team
If our team built a listing for you to save you the typing, you'll receive a link that opens a page titled Claim your listing — "We uploaded a listing for you. Take a look?"
- Open the link. You'll see a preview of the listing: address, photo, beds, baths, and description.
- Enter your name and your email. We'll send a sign-in link to that email — no password needed.
- Tell us whether it's right: Yep, looks accurate or Something's off. If something is off, write what to fix; we review it before publishing.
- Choose what operators see on the public card:
- Gated — neighborhood only on the card. Operators see the neighborhood, bedrooms, bathrooms, and rent; the full address is shared once they message you.
- Open — full address on the card. Faster to match, typical for owner listings.
- Hide the unit / apt number until they message, and Show photos on the listing (turn off if your photos are recognisable elsewhere online).
- An optional note to operators.
- Press Confirm + claim listing.
The listing becomes yours, and we email you a link to sign in. Owner listings are reviewed and go live within about 24 to 72 hours; a listing claimed by a licensed realtor publishes immediately.
If the link has expired, ask whoever sent it for a new one. If it says the listing has already been claimed and that was you, sign in from the login page by requesting a new email link.
2. A personal listing link from a contributor
Some people on Zi-Find (we call them finders or contributors) help owners get their properties listed. If one of them worked with you, they may send you their own link to a page titled List your property.
- Open the link. It shows who sent you, by first name.
- Enter the property address, unit, city, state, bedrooms, bathrooms, and monthly rent.
- Under How to reach you, add your name, email, and phone. Operators contact you directly — your details are what appear on the listing, not the contributor's.
- Optionally add anything else worth knowing, and press Submit your property.
You don't need an account first. We email you afterwards with a link to set one up, along with a one-click question asking you to confirm you're open to subleasing — see Confirming sublease approval.
Does the contributor get paid by me?
No. They receive credit from Zi-Find for bringing the property in. It costs you nothing, it is not a fee, and you remain the contact on your own listing. If you're already signed in and use their link, the Add a property form tells you this too.
Good to know
- Only claim or submit a property you own or are authorised to lease.
- Once claimed, manage the listing like any other: My Properties → click the property. See Managing your listing.
- If you didn't expect any of this, or the property isn't yours, reply to the email that brought you here and a person will read it.
