Step 2- Select The Role 

You’ll need to indicate which side of the transaction you represent. If a listing agent is not using HomeLight Listing Management to share their property information, you’ll be able to create a buyer side package to share with your buyer clients.

Step 3- Enter the Address 

HLM software will auto-suggest addresses based on your location, however, you can manually enter the property address if needed.

Step 4- Add Property Information

This allows interested buyer parties to quickly reference the top-level details for your property. Some buyers don’t have access to the MLS printouts or they’re looking at multiple properties; this is an optional step.

Step 5- Add the Listing Agent Information 

Select the dropdown option under Agent 1 to invite the listing agent to the package. At least one agent must be added to the package to continue. This can be updated in the coversheet at a later time if needed.

Step 6- Add  Escrow Information

Enter the pre-sale escrow information. The option to save and select a template is available to all HLM users. This information is optional and can be updated in package or on the coversheet at a later time if needed.

Step 7- Upload Photos 

Adding images to your property package also allows buyers to get a visual of your listing. The first image will be included on PDF exports of the property packet and used as the first image seen by potential buyers on the registration page. This is an optional step.
