Registration as a Lister

You must register as property lister to post housing listing on the MassAccess web site.

Registering as a lister is easy, but the steps are slightly different when you are registering as part of an organization that already exists in the MassAccess system, versus when you are registering as an individual.

Registration Step 1

1. On the home page, choose Register below the Login box in the left  sidebar.

2. Fill in the registration form:

   Username – Type a username you want to use to access the MassAccess system.

   Password – Type a password you want to use to access the MassAccess system.

   Password Confirmation - This prompt is designed to prevent typos when you enter your chosen password. Re-type your password in this field rather than copying and pasting from the Password field.

   Security Question/Security Answer – Choose a security question and provide an answer to the question. You will be asked this question if you have forgotten your password, so choose a question and answer that you will remember.

3. Check the box that says: "I am a property manager" and choose Submit.

4. The system will direct you to Page 2 of Registration.

Registration Step 2

On the Register Step 2 page, fill in the appropriate fields with your contact information.

Note: All registered Listers must be associated with an organization.

First, check to see if your organization is already listed in the drop-down list, and if found, select this organization. Learn more about adding yourself as a lister for an existing organization.

If your organization is not listed, or you are an individual property owner, check the Add an Organization checkbox and enter the name of the new organization. Learn more about registering a new organization.

Registering to Post Properties for an Existing Organization

1. After selecting your organization from the drop-down list, fill in the contact information form.

   Since the contact information for the organization already exists in the system, the contact information you enter will serve as your lister account contact information.

   The lister contact information you enter will not change the contact information for the organization.

2. After you choose Submit, the system will send an email regarding your request to become a lister for the organization to the organization's lister administrator.

   Once the lister administrator approves your request, you will receive a confirmation notice that you have lister privileges on the web site.

   Until you receive this confirmation, you may search for listings and use the system as a housing seeker would, including saving searches, selecting favorite properties, setting up alerts, etc.

   Once you are confirmed as a lister, you may post housing listings for your organization.

Registering to Post Properties for a New Organization

1. If your organization is not listed in the drop-down list, you can add a new organization to the system during registration by selecting the Add an Organization checkbox.

2. Type the name of your organization into the New Organization Name field.

3. The information you enter in the contact fields serves as the contact information for the organization you are adding as well your personal contact information.

   Your account will be added to the system immediately. You can add and edit listings, and other listers for your organization.

Note:  Your postings will not appear in search results until the MassAccess Housing Registry reviews and approves your request to add the organization.
