About Add/Edit Listing

Use Add/Edit to add and maintain public and private listings of all classes.

Listings are linked to the property's public record. When you establish this link before starting data entry, the system can auto-fill many of the fields describing property characteristics, link to the public record from the listing detail form, and link to the listing from the public record detail form.

To create the link, you must locate the appropriate public record using the Link Listing to Public Record search. Once linked, the listing detail edit form displays; here you enter listing details, upload photos and attachments, and change the map location if necessary.

Add Listing

Use the Add Listing tab to begin adding a public or private listing and link to its public record. As you add information at the listing detail edit form, the system auto-saves the listing as a draft. If you can't complete the draft in one session, plan to do so quickly; check MLS restrictions on the number of days that drafts remain available. Once you complete all required information and either upload or order a photo, the system assigns an MLS# and stores the listing in the MLS listing database.

Edit Listing

If the listing is complete and no longer in draft form, use the Edit Listing tab to make changes at the listing detail edit form. Edit Listing allows you to change most listing details, change the status or price, upload and manage photos and attachments, change the map location, convert private listings to public, and delete a listing.

Drafts

Use the Drafts tab to add to or complete a listing you began in an earlier session. Note: The system purges drafts you have not completed after a period of time determined by the MLS.

Clone Listing

Use the Clone Listing tab to create a draft based on the details of an existing listing.

Online Forms

Use the Online Forms tab to access the Instanet website and its property data sheet (PDS).

ShowingTime

Use the ShowingTime tab to access Showing Time tools for a particular listing.
