Once you've completed all of the Pre-marketing for the property and the listing is approved to be published to portals, the first step involved in Marketing of the property is to make the property 'Available'.
The simplest way of doing so initially is by using our new property workflow, which helps you manage properties through the lifecycle of a transaction.
You're able to progress a property to the Available status, once it's ready to market and be published.
This process is identical for both sales and lettings properties.
