Add New Listing

Overview

Add New Listing

This article demonstrates how to Add a New Listing using the Add a Listing feature within Properties in Reapit Sales.

*** Note:** If the appraisal property already exists with this address in your database then you need toconvert the appraisal property to a listing. To create a NEW listing, regular Sales users will need to create a Prospect Property or Appraisal first. "Property Manager", "Admin" & "Master" Users will be able to skip this step and create New Listings directly. 1. Go to Properties from the main menu 2. Click Add a Listing on the left property panel.

*Note: if you are unable to see this button please contact a Master user in your office and get them to check your permissions.
