# How to Add Documents to a Property

### TL;DR
|| Attach contracts, inspections, floor plans, or any relevant files directly to a property so everything is organized in one place—searchable, shareable, and easy to manage.
---

### When to use this
Consider using this feature whenever you receive or generate documents related 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)

1. Open your portfolio.
2. Click the property to which you want to attach documents.
3. Navigate to the **Documents** section inside the property.
4. Click **Paperclip**.
5. Select files from your computer (PDF, images, or supported formats).
6. Wait for the upload to complete. The document is now attached to that property.

### Option 2: Upload from the Property Chat (Best when you want to notify client about it)

1. Open your portfolio.
2. Click the property to which you want to attach documents.
3. Navigate to the **Chat** section inside the property.
4. Click **Paperclip**.
5. Select files from your computer (PDF, images, or supported formats).
6. Wait for the upload to complete. The document is now attached to that property.

### Option 3: Drag & Drop Upload (Best for speed)

### Common issues & tips
* **File visibility:** Clients can only see documents intended for them. Your private notes remain hidden.
* **Property selection:** Ensure you’re inside the correct property before uploading.
* **Naming discipline:** Clearly rename files (e.g., `Inspection_Report_Alameda_2026.pdf`) to minimize confusion later.
* **Version control:** Upload updated versions instead of replacing files to maintain history.
* **Performance:** Large PDFs upload best on stable connections—consider avoiding mobile hotspots if possible.
