Showings Availability

Default Availability Settings

Setting your availability makes it easier for Leads to schedule a showing. When they request a showing, the times you’ve specified will be displayed as available. Also, you have the option to set up automatic approval, so that you’ll no longer need to explicitly accept a showing appointment made during an available time slot.

To change your default showings availability settings, first click the main settings dropdown in the upper right, then select Showings.

NowRenting: Navigate to Showings Settings

The central view of the Showings page is a calendar that displays scheduled showings for all your Leads and Listings. To access the availability menu, click the clock icon in the upper right.

Individual Listing Showings Availability

The same settings are available for individual Listings. Just navigate to the Listing’s details page and click the Showings pill, then the clock icon in the upper right.

Any availability entries specified for individual Listings override the default showings availability settings.
