# Add a listing

> Create a listing in seven short steps, publish it for review, then choose the portals that receive it.

Add your own listing once and it is ready for your website, brochures, other agencies on Fondaro and the portals you choose.

## Add a listing

1. Press **Create** in the top bar, then **New listing**. Or press **Add listing** on My listings.
2. The listing form opens full screen. Work through the steps on the left; **Next** checks each step before it moves on.
3. On the last step, press **Publish listing**.

Each step shows a check once it is done. You can go back to any step you have reached. Nothing is saved until you publish, so Fondaro asks before you close a form that holds anything.

## The seven steps

| Step | What you add |
|------|--------------|
| **Photos** | Drag in your photos or press **Select photos**. Drag to reorder and star the cover. One photo is enough to continue. |
| **Property** | The title (up to 140 characters), how it is offered (for sale, for rent, fractional, or sale or rent), category, type, price and currency, bedrooms, bathrooms, year built and sizes. |
| **Location** | Search for the address or enter it by hand. Street, city and country are needed. If the pin lands in the wrong spot, press the map button beside the address and drag the pin (or click the map) onto the home itself. |
| **Details** | All optional: rental terms, energy certificate, parking, yearly costs, floor and orientation, condition and furnishing, and amenities. |
| **Plans & tours** | Optional floor plans, video links and virtual tour links. |
| **Agent & sharing** | The agent, your commission, the commission you offer other agencies, viewing instructions and **Auto renew**. |
| **Publish** | The description and a checklist of anything still missing. |

> **Note:** Your own commission and viewing instructions stay private to your agency. The commission you offer other agencies is shown to them as **Offered to collaborating agencies**.

## Write the description

When you reach **Publish** with the facts in place, Ask Fondaro writes a description for you, in your language, from your photos and the details you set. It only says what the photos and details show: no made-up views or nearby places, and no price, so it never goes out of date. Edit it freely, or press **Rewrite with Ask Fondaro** for a fresh one (**Undo** on the note brings the old one back). **Preview** shows your cover photo as it will look on your website and in a brochure.

## After you publish

A new listing is **Active** straight away: it goes to your website, other agencies and the portals you chose at once. Fondaro then checks it in the background. If something looks wrong, such as a phone number in the description or photos of a different home, it moves to **Pending** while we take a look. The confirmation offers three next steps: **Choose portals**, open the listing, or add another.

## Choose portals

Press **Choose portals** after publishing, or open the listing's **Portals** section later.

1. Tick each portal that should receive the listing.
2. Press **Save portals**.

You can pick a portal before your agency has connected it; it waits as **Not connected** until an admin sets up its feed. Nothing is sent while a listing is Pending. See [Portal publishing](https://www.fondaro.com/docs/dashboard/properties/portals.md).

## Edit a listing

Press **Edit listing** on the listing's page. It opens full screen with the same steps as a new listing. **Next** saves what you changed and moves to the following step, and you can also pick a step from the list. The last step is **Status & description**, where **Update listing** saves and takes you back to the listing. Only what you changed is saved. See [Listing workspace](https://www.fondaro.com/docs/dashboard/properties/listing-cockpit.md).
