For a while now, some of you suggested the ability to enter move in costs for listings. In the past, we have recommended to use the notes field and the landlord tags. However, while using those fields do accomplish the task, it is not very precise. An agent cannot tell with a glance what’s needed and how much money is needed.
We haven’t made this improvement till now mostly because we were worried about adding more fields and complexities to the system. It is very difficult to be easy to use and intuitive, yet powerful.
We have finally made this feature available. Now you can enter the move in costs to any listing, and the system will automatically tally up the numbers for you and your users. You will find an extra link called Update Move In Costs in the Listing Details page. Clicking it will bring up a form allowing to enter / modify that listing’s move in costs, and allow you to apply it to the building or landlord. This is also enabled when entering new listings. Please see screen shots below for more info.
The list of items are not comprehensive. If we are missing anything, please let us know.
