Features and Amenities: Reference Guide

Every field you fill in determines two things: how your listing looks and whether an interested buyer even finds it. Portals filter by features, missing amenities means not visible when a buyer checks “with swimming pool”.

When do you use this?

• A photographer delivers photos, you want to know which features belong to this type
• Idealista refuses publication due to missing fields, you look it up
• You train a team member on which features make the difference for portals

2. Transaction Type: For Sale, For Rent, …
3. Condition: new, good, needs renovation
4. Features: checkboxes for standard amenities

→ Additional Amenities field. Type + Enter.

Pets Allowed invisible

Transaction Type = For Sale. Hides itself. Change to For Rent or Rental with Option.

Portal refuses publication

Specific validation per portal. Energy labels mandatory? Description in correct language? The system shows per portal which fields are missing.

Dropdown options incorrect

Many dropdowns are dynamic enums → admin adjusts via Settings → Dynamic Enums.
