Edit a listing

Click any listing and it opens in a panel over your list, so you don’t lose your place.

Activity Everything that’s happened to this listing, and who did it
  1. Address. Start typing and pick the match from the list. The city and ZIP fill themselves in.

  2. Rent. Either a monthly amount, or a voucher program. If you pick a voucher, the rent box greys out, because there isn’t one.

  3. Available date, bedrooms, bathrooms and neighborhood.

  4. Access. The keypad code, or a note about the key, for example LOCKBOX ON SIDE · 5308. This is what a broker reads to get in when there’s no UnitBook lockbox on the unit.

  5. Broker description. The paragraph brokers read under the photos.

Your changes aren’t saved as you type. Click Save draft.

The switch at the top publishes and unpublishes the listing. If you have unsaved changes, it saves them first.

When the switch is off, the label next to it tells you why the listing isn’t live: it’s still waiting to be reviewed, it’s still being prepared, or it’s been taken down.

When you fix something on a listing that came from a sheet, your version stays. The next check won’t overwrite your address, description or bedroom count.

Availability is the exception. If the manager marks the unit rented, UnitBook takes your listing down. See Why a unit didn’t come through.

Management companies see an Access box at the top, which answers one question: how does someone get into this unit?

If there’s a UnitBook lockbox on the unit, that’s the answer, and the box links to your lockboxes. If there isn’t, it’s the access note you typed in above.

If you use key checkout, you’ll also see who currently has the key.
