# Create your first listing

*Listings*

### What you’ll learn

- Add a property with photos, price and the key details
- Choose whether it’s shared to your community
- Share the listing link with prospects

A listing is the engine of your CommunitySync account. Publish one and it appears on
your community's Featured Listings page, on your own website, and as a shareable link
that tracks views back to your inbox — all branded to you.

## Start a new listing

1. Open **Listings** from the sidebar and click **New Listing** (or **Generate
   Opportunity**).
2. Choose how to add the property: **import from a Zillow link**, **import from MLS**
   (if your community has MLS access), or **enter it manually**. Importing pulls the
   details and photos in for you — see
   [Import a property from a Zillow link](/import-listing-from-zillow).

## Fill in the property details

1. Confirm the **address, city, state, and ZIP**.
2. Enter the **beds, baths, guest count, square footage**, and **list price**.
3. Add **photos** — drag in your own, or let a Zillow import bring them automatically.

## Add a title and description

1. Type a **title** (the property name or headline), or click the AI option to
   generate one.
2. For the **description**, use the AI generator and pick how you want the property
   framed: **long-term rental, mid-term rental, short-term rental, or primary
   residence**. Each gives you tailored language.
3. Edit the generated copy so it sounds like you.

## Publish

1. Click **Publish Opportunity**.
2. Your listing goes live on the community's **Featured Listings** page, appears on
   your own website, and becomes a **shareable link**.
3. That link is automatically saved under **Communications → Shared Links** so you
   can track it.

## After publishing

Open the **Your Listings** tab to see leads per listing, edit or remove a listing,
and — with one click — spin up a [rental forecast
report](/generate-rental-forecast-report) from the same property data.

## Troubleshooting

### "This property already exists"

CommunitySync blocks duplicate imports of the same property across your community, so
you can't accidentally publish the same house twice. Search **Your Listings** — it's
likely already there and you can edit it instead.

### My photos didn't import from Zillow

Occasionally a source page blocks photo access. Add photos manually on the listing —
everything else you entered stays put.
