Add a unit
- Open the property and its Units tab, or open Units in the Portfolio section of the navigation.
- Choose Add unit. On the Units page, choose the property first.
- Enter a label, such as
Apt 3B,Shop 1orP12, and choose the kind. - Add the details you know: floor, area in m², rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms and the market rent.
- Save. The unit appears as vacant until a lease covers it.
Note: A label must be unique within its property, whatever the capitalisation. Two properties can each have an Apt 1.
The details
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Label | Required. The name you and your tenants use for the unit. |
| Kind | Apartment, house, room, office, retail, warehouse, parking, storage or other. See Units. |
| Floor | Free text, so EG, 2, Mezzanine and -1 all work. |
| Area | In square metres, with up to two decimals. |
| Rooms | With one decimal, so a German 2.5-room flat is entered as 2.5. |
| Bedrooms and bathrooms | Bathrooms accept halves, such as 1.5. |
| Market rent | The monthly rent you ask or aim for. It is a reference only. The rent a tenant pays is set on the lease. |
| Unavailable | Turn on while the unit cannot be let, for example during a renovation or while it is in your own use. |
| Notes | Anything your team should know, such as the meter numbers or key locations. |
Tip: Fill in the market rent for every unit. Comparing it with the rent on the lease shows which units are let below market.
