Everything you need to know about booking, writing, and releasing successful to rent advertisements.
The questions landlords actually ask before booking a rental classified.
Classified text is charged per line, so a short To Let ad is the cheapest option — the rate finder above shows the real figure for your paper and edition before you share anything, at official rates with a lowest-price guarantee. Classified display, which lets you add a photo, border or colour, is charged per sq.cm. Both are per insertion, plus 5% GST.
Most rental classifieds run in one shape: property type and size, locality, floor, furnishing, rent expected, and a contact number — for example "2BHK, 1st floor, semi-furnished, Sector 34, ₹18,000, no brokers". Tell us those details in any order, even as a photo of handwritten matter, and we set it in the paper's format and show you a proof before it prints.
Yes, and many landlords do — it is one of the most common lines in a To Let column. We will include it exactly as you want it. It costs nothing extra beyond the line it occupies.
A classified runs only in the editions you choose, and each covers specific districts — so a Chandigarh edition will not reach a tenant reading in Ludhiana. Tell us your locality and we confirm which edition reaches it before you pay.
Weekend editions carry the heaviest rental readership, which is when most people look for a place. Weekday insertions cost the same per line and are useful if you want the ad to appear quickly — many landlords run it two or three days in a row rather than once.
Most papers have a same-day or next-morning cut-off — book before the cut-off and it runs the next day. Weekend rental pages book out earlier, so give yourself a day's margin. We confirm the exact cut-off for your paper and edition before you pay.
Yes — free. Send the details in any language and we draft it, trim it to the paper's line limit, translate it into the paper's language and show you a proof before it prints.
After publication you can view your ad in that paper's e-paper, or buy a local copy of the edition. You also get a GST invoice for the booking.
