Property Status Badges

Editing a Property

1. Find the property in your list
2. Click "Edit" button
3. Form opens with all current details pre-filled
4. Make your changes (price, description, images, etc.)
5. Click "Save Changes"
6. Updates appear on live listing within seconds

What You Can Edit

• All property details (price, description, features)
• Images (add, remove, reorder, change primary)
• Status (Under Offer, SSTC, etc.)
• Media (virtual tour URL, video URL)

What You Cannot Edit

• Created By: Owner cannot be changed via frontend
• Branch ID: Property stays with original branch
• Feed Source: Feed-imported properties keep their link to your feed, including if you remove the feed and later reconnect the same type of connection - the listing is updated, not duplicated

Publishing and Unpublishing

Unpublish a Property

• Click "Unpublish" button on property card
• Property is hidden from public listings immediately
• Remains in your "My Properties" list
• Property URL returns 404 (not found) to visitors
• Use when: Property is temporarily off-market

Re-Publish a Property

• Find unpublished property in your list
• Click "Publish" button
• Property goes live instantly
• Appears in search results and maps again

Bulk Operations

Estate Agents Only:

1. Select checkboxes next to multiple properties
2. Choose action from bulk menu:
   • Publish Selected
   • Unpublish Selected
   • Delete Selected
3. Confirm action
4. All selected properties updated at once

Deleting Properties

Soft Delete (Recommended)

• Click "Delete" button
• Property is trashed (state = -2)
• Hidden from public site and your "My Properties" list
• Can be restored by contacting support
• Listings from a property feed: if your software sends the property again, it comes back on the next import. For most feeds, remove it in your software to take it down for good. Alto and Vebra are different: they only send changes, so withdrawing a property in Alto does not remove it here - Delete it here instead (it stays deleted unless the listing is changed in Alto again), or contact us.
• Not deleted automatically - it stays in the trash until you ask support to erase it permanently (see Hard Delete below)
• Exception: a listing you never submitted (an unsubmitted draft) is deleted permanently straight away, with its photos, and cannot be restored

Hard Delete (Admin Only)

• Permanent deletion only available via admin backend
• Removes property, images, and all related data
• Cannot be undone

Property not appearing in search
