Checking for rentals using rope.realgeeks.com (Simple Way):
Go to rope.realgeeks.com and click on rets boards. Search for the board that the client is on & click on it. Search for 'res_r' by using the command+F shortcut. ‘res_r’ signifies that residential rentals have been mapped for this board. You may also notice con_r and com_r. These represent condo and commercial rentals.
If res_r, or any other _r values are listed in the type field, you are free to add rentals! If not, this board most likely does not provide rental data. However, you can double check with a "Boards Specialist" to see if something got missed when mapping the board.

How to check if a board has rentals in the terminal example (A little more complex, but it works):
1. run `ssh root@kickstart1.pulley.rg-infra.com`
2. Type `cd scripts` to change directories
3. Type 'cid 40' (40 represents board number) to access board 40 in the database.
4. Type 'db.properties.distinct("type",{board:40,enabled:true}).sort()'
This query will pull in all of the available property types for this board.
You should see the query return something like this
'["con" "res", "res_r"]'
If res_r is returned as a value, you are free to add rentals! If not, this board most likely does not provide rental data. However, you can double check with a "Boards Specialist" to see if something got missed when mapping the board.
