6.2 Property Types & Listing Types

Every listing has a listing type (is it for sale or for rent?) and a property type (what kind of property is it?). You choose both at the very start of the listing form, and visitors use the same choices to search.

1. What are you listing? Choose For Sale or For Rent.

2. Property Type: choose the one that fits your property best.
