Letting agents
How do you advertise flats for rent as a letting agent?
Even if you have a high-street presence and lots of footfall past your shop window, the days of doing business through local press advertising and shopfronts are long gone. As an agent, you likely have your established systems and know all the golden rules about well-presented professional images and descriptions that, while positive, remain honest and factual. What may be missing is getting that information displayed on a property platform that lets you and your properties reach the widest possible audience.
We offer a subscription service that’s tailor-made for your needs. This lets you post all of your properties at one single rate. The subscription also includes the option of bumping up your ads on a regular basis, so you can monitor what’s moving easily and what’s a little stickier and respond accordingly.
Gumtree also tackles the problem of needing time and staff to manage your uploads. We know you need to get your properties in front of quality tenants as quickly as possible. To keep things simple, we’ve designed our service so that you can upload multiple properties all in one go.
Commercial agents
How do I advertise my office space?
In a competitive market, Gumtree aims to help you reach a large audience while generating lots of leads in a short time frame. Whether you have one office space or multiple facilities, Gumtree listings for commercial agents can accommodate everything you might have written on an old-fashioned flyer. You can set out all of the information that a prospective commercial tenant expects to see, like:
- Professional-quality photos or schematics of the space
- Maps showing the location and relevant services, amenities and transport hubs
- Features and highlights of your property
- All of the leasing information that’s required
- Any other information, including your contact details, should you choose to share them.

Whether your agency is already a powerhouse or you’re just getting started, getting your business live on Gumtree is easy, and there are different options available. If you’ve only got a small number of properties currently or want the flexibility to advertise on an ad-hoc basis, you could start with pay-as-you-go advertising. For larger enterprises, you’ll likely find our pro-account subscriptions are most suitable, assuming your advertising needs are pretty regular. You’ll enjoy access to a specialist account manager and preferential rates for volume bookings.
With a pro-account subscription, you can buy bundles of credits upfront, which makes you eligible for volume discounts. You can use your credits either to post new listings or bump up existing ones by moving your ad to the top slot – your choice. You can also monitor the performance of each of your ads through your access to Pro Console, Gumtree’s management platform for pro-account holders.

Private landlords
The first thing to know is that Gumtree is the only site in the UK that lets you, as a private landlord, advertise your property for rent free of charge. Unlike using an agent to find a tenant, there’s no fee, no commission, nothing.
How can I find tenants?
It’s a landlord’s market out there at the moment, and with your property listed on Gumtree, you’ll find a keen audience. Let’s look at how to advertise your rental property so that your listing attracts plenty of attention.
- A quick tidy and declutter of your property is advisable before you take those all-important pictures. You can post up to 9 pictures with a free listing, so why not take the opportunity to show every room from different angles, plus the outside of the property and any outside space?
- If you can get hold of professional-quality photos, that’s a definite plus. If not, try to make sure your pictures are clear, informative, cropped to show what you intend to, and the right way up when they’re uploaded to Gumtree
- A good description is factual and honest. There’s no point in talking up a tiny property to sound like a mansion, as this can give false impressions
- It’s worth researching the locality and similar properties so you’re confident that you’re asking the right amount of rent
- We recommend you take a look at our Gumtree safety guidance to help protect yourself from scams or other personal insecurity
