- **Add the Property Address**:
  - Enter the property’s address in the **Add Title** section. This serves as the title for the property listing.
- **Write a Description**:
  - In the content editor, you’ll see **Type / to choose a block**. Here, enter a detailed description of the property.
- **Lock the Property**:
  - Tick the **Lock Property** box to prevent the property from being overwritten by any new data feed import.
