How to create a listing record

A listing record can only be created from a Property Record, so the User needs to create the Property Record first.

Residential Listings

When clicked, the User will be able to select if the Listing is For Sale or For Lease.

Commercial Listings

Commercial properties will have the following options:

For Sale
For Lease
Both (this means the property is advertised as both for sale and for lease).

Conditions for creating a new residential listing record

If there is already a For Sale Listing Record with status = Draft, Active, Withdrawn or Under Offer the For Sale option will be greyed out

If the Property does not have a Management Record that is Active (only applicable to Residential Properties) then the For Lease option will be greyed out.

However, this condition does not exist for Agents operating their own rent rolls.

If the User is not operating Rentals at all, then the For Lease option will NOT display for Residential Properties.

Listing Wizard

The listing wizard is the step by step process the User needs to complete in order to create the Listing Record.

Step 1 - Marketing

In this step the User will add the Marketing campaign to the listing record if there is one.

When a ‘Campaign’ is added, it will display in this step with each of its Items.

Step 2 - Listing

This step contains the details that will be on the Listing Agreement.

Most of the fields are the same for all countries and states, however there are a few differences based on the location of the property.

Has the seller provided as asking price is a dropdown that contains the Yes or No options.

The Asking Price field will only display is the User has selected YES for Has the seller provided as asking price.

This field will be required.

The Price/Display Price field is a required field and used for filtering on the websites.

It cannot have a number lower than $2,900.

The Display Text Instead of Price field is a free text field so the User can enter text for the price.

If this is left blank, then the Price/Display Price field will display as the price on the websites.

It is important to note that this field is NOT a free text field for NSW or Vic Residential For Sale listings.

Instead there is a dropdown with pre-defined options. This is to protect the agent from Underquoting.

The Listing Status options will differ based on the Type of Property and Type of Listing.

The Authority field is based on the type of agency authority the seller has signed. The options are:

Auction Date will only display if the Authority field is set to Auction. This date will display on the websites when advertised.

Auction Time will only display if the Authority field is set to Auction. This time will display on the websites when advertised.

The Authority Start Date should be aligned with the start date of the Agency Authority. This will auto-populate with current date when the User is creating the Listing Record

The Authority Expiration Date is the date the Authority will expire. This will only be required if the Authority Status is:

Exclusive
Auction
Sole Agency
Multi list
Set Sale

This will auto-populate with date that is 90 days after the Authority Start Date.

The Commission Type field is a dropdown where the User can select if the commission to be charged is a Fixed amount or Percentage

The Commission Amount field is dependent on the Commission Type field.

If Fixed Amount is selected then the User will enter the GST inclusive Amount to be charged.

If Percentage is selected the the User will enter the GST inclusive percentage which will be used to calculate the commission based on the SOLD amount in the Settled Offer.

Display Address on Websites will display the address on all websites if YES is selected, otherwise only the suburb will be displayed.

Agent Selection will display the Primary Agent, which will be at the top of the listings.

Agents can add one other agent to the listing.

Any agent in the @realty network can be selected as long as they do not have different http://realestate.com.au accounts.

Once selected they choose what the commission split is, this will be used in the Agent Commission Statements.

Step 3 - Ad Details

This step will includes the ad header and description along with any key links that needs to be included in the Listing Ad.
