Rental Listing — Apartment
A deliberately un-cinematic letting card for a flat going on the market — a fact sheet with a photograph attached, built so a lettings agency can render one video per available unit straight from a property-management feed (Reapit, Alto, Arthur, Goodlord) and repost the set as rents move and dates roll forward. 26 seconds, 1080x1920 (9:16), five hard-cut scenes that alternate graphite and cool white so every cut is also a value flip: the hero photo with the rent inside the first five seconds, a no-photograph numbers frame (beds, baths, floor area, furnishing, neighbourhood) built to be screenshotted, two labelled interiors, an honest money-and-dates frame (deposit, minimum term, council tax and EPC in plain words), and a closing spec ledger over a cyan "Book a viewing" band. Twenty dynamic fields swap per render: address_line, area_line, reference_code, listing_photo_1/2/3, photo_2_label, photo_3_label, rent_amount, rent_period, deposit_line, term_line, bills_line, beds_value, baths_value, size_value, furnishing_value, available_date, agency_name and contact_line — every one of them a column in a property feed, with rent passed preformatted (the template never formats a number) and the three term lines left as free text so a non-UK agency can put anything in them.

Frequently asked questions
How do I customize the Rental Listing — Apartment template?
Open the template in the Renderly editor and replace its 20 customizable fields (such as Listing Photo 1) with your own text, images, or video. Every change previews instantly before you render.
How much does it cost to render this template?
Rendering is credit-based — 1 credit equals 1 minute of 1080p video. You only pay when you export, and credits never expire on the pay-as-you-go plan.
Can I generate this video at scale via the API?
Yes. POST this template's ID and a replacements object to /api/v1/renders — one call per row of data, 20 fields swappable per video. Send the same body to /api/v1/previews first to check it for free. No-code integrations like Zapier work the same way.
More Real Estate templates
Price Just Dropped
The price-cut alert card a listing agent posts the hour a property is repriced — the third card in the "just-sold-status-card" status set, built on the same red rubber-stamp, ink-and-white alternating system. Four scenes in 17s at 1080x1920 (9:16, 30fps): a slammed PRICE DROP stamp over the listing photo, a was/now price pair where the old figure is struck through in red and the new one runs at 196px, three stats framing the reduction as the buyer's arithmetic, and an agent card closing on a phone number that holds still for the final second. Twenty dynamic fields drive it off one CRM row — status_label, status_value, status_value_label, price_was, price_was_label, stat_1/2/3_value, stat_1/2/3_label, property_photo, property_address, property_locality, property_specs, agent_name, agent_title, agent_photo, agent_contact and closing_line — eighteen text swaps plus the property and headshot images. Every field except the two new price_was fields carries the exact name and meaning it has in the founder card, so a brokerage can drive all three cards from the same spreadsheet row.
Open House This Weekend
The card an agent posts on Thursday for every property with a viewing that weekend — an event card rather than a listing, where the property is context and the timing is the message. Five scenes at 1080x1920 (9:16 vertical), 19 seconds at 30fps: a rubber-stamped OPEN HOUSE badge slams over the exterior photo with the address and viewing window readable at feed-thumbnail size, then the viewing time stated at 196px poster scale, then the three practical objections answered (which Saturday, no RSVP needed, free street parking), one interior beat, and a close on the agent's face with a phone number that holds still for the final second. Nineteen dynamic fields swap per render: status_label (the stamp word), status_value and status_value_label (the viewing window and its caption), property_photo, property_photo_2 and agent_photo, property_address, property_locality and property_specs, three stat_N_value / stat_N_label pairs carrying date, access and parking, plus agent_name, agent_title, agent_contact and closing_line. It shares all nineteen field names and the full visual skin with its sibling just-sold-status-card, so one listing row drives both cards and a weekly job can render one MP4 per property with a viewing in the next four days.
Neighborhood Guide
A 16:9 1920x1080, 40-second, six-scene area guide for real-estate agents farming a neighbourhood — a card about the area rather than a listing (the schools, the commute, the coffee, the trail three streets up). The film runs cover, what it's like, highlight 01, highlight 02, highlights 03+04 as a shared typographic spread, then the agent sign-off, alternating strictly between paper (#F7F4EE) and ink (#1D1D1B) grounds with slate blue as the only accent, set in Lora for statement lines, Public Sans for body copy and JetBrains Mono for furniture. 24 dynamic fields swap per render in three edit rhythms: the area (neighborhood_name, city_line, neighborhood_intro, photo_hero, photo_street), the highlights (highlight_1..4_label/_title/_detail plus photo_1 and photo_2), and the agent block that is written once and reused across every area (agent_name, agent_title, agent_contact, closing_line, agent_photo). neighborhood_name drives six appearances from a single variable — a 150px Lora display on the cover and five uppercased mono furniture lines elsewhere — so one row per neighbourhood in a sheet yields one render per area.
