How to Add Documents to a Property
TL;DR
Attach contracts, inspections, floor plans, or any relevant files directly to a property so everything lives in one place—searchable, shareable, and impossible to lose in email threads.When to use this
Use this whenever you receive or generate documents tied to a specific property, such as:
- Before or after a viewing (floor plans, disclosures)
- During due diligence (inspection reports, HOA docs)
- While negotiating or closing (contracts, amendments)
Step-by-step instructions
Option 1 — Upload from the Property View (Best for most workflows)
- Open your portfolio.
- Click the property you want to attach documents to.
- Navigate to the Documents section inside the property.
- Click Paperclip.
- Select files from your computer (PDF, images, or supported formats).
- Wait for the upload to complete—the document is now attached to that property.
Option 1 — Upload from the Property Chat (Best when you want to notify client about it)
- Open your portfolio.
- Click the property you want to attach documents to.
- Navigate to the **Chat **section inside the property.
- Click Paperclip.
- Select files from your computer (PDF, images, or supported formats).
- Wait for the upload to complete—the document is now attached to that property.

Common issues & tips
- File visibility: Clients can only see documents meant for them. Your private notes remain hidden.
- Wrong property: Always double-check you’re inside the correct property before uploading.
- Naming discipline: Rename files clearly (e.g.
Inspection_Report_Alameda_2026.pdf) to reduce confusion later. - Version control: Upload updated versions instead of replacing files so the history stays intact.
- Performance: Large PDFs upload best on stable connections—avoid mobile hotspots if possible.
