In a property record, you have the option to add a room, a paragraph, and link corresponding photos. When adding a paragraph, there is also the option to select a standard paragraph from your library.

Depending on the information your agency prefers to include in your property description, you have the flexibility to add either a room name, its dimensions in metric or imperial, and a room description. Alternatively, you can choose to add just one of these options, tailoring it to suit your brochure and portal feed.
