Why describe the unit?
A complete description reassures applicants and limits questions: layout of the home, size of each room, equipment provided, floor plan. This information also feeds the public property page.
Add rooms and their equipment
Open your rental, then Rentals > Units and click the name of the unit.
In the Flat layout part, choose the Private areas tab (reserved for the tenant) or Common areas (shared: flatshare kitchen, laundry room...).
Click Add a room: enter its type, name and size in m², then tick its equipment (bed, air conditioning, television, fitted kitchen...).
Confirm. The room appears in the list; you can edit or delete it at any time.
Flatshare
Declare the bedrooms as private areas and the shared kitchen, living room or bathroom as common areas: each flatmate clearly sees what they have.
Arrange the unit floor plan
In the Technical details block of the unit page, click Arrange the rooms of the unit.
Available rooms: drag a room onto the plan or click it to add it.
Unit layout: select a room to move it, rotate it by 90° or resize it with its corner handles. Choose its shape: rectangle, square, L-shaped or U-shaped.
Doors and windows: place each opening on one of the four walls of the room; for a door, specify the opening direction and the leaf.
Click Save. The Undo button cancels the last change.
The plan is schematic: dimensions are expressed in grid units, without a metric scale.Drag the rooms (1), adjust them (2), save (3) and view in 3D (4).
Duplex and triplex: several levels
For a home spread over several floors, choose Duplex (2 levels) or Triplex (3 levels) in "Home type", above the plan. One tab per level appears: each level has its own plan, and the neighbouring level is shown faintly so you can align rooms.
Each room is placed on a single level.
To connect the levels, first add the vertical circulation rooms in the unit sheet: Indoor, straight, winder or spiral staircase, Elevator, Goods lift / platform lift ("Entrance / Circulation" category). Place them on every level they serve: click the room on the first level, then on the next one, and it automatically takes the same position and size.
Shortcut: below the level selector, choose a type of vertical circulation (indoor, straight, winder or spiral staircase, elevator, goods lift) then Add to the unit and place on the levels: the room is created in the unit and placed at once, at the same spot, on every level. A staircase already in the unit sheet is also placed on every level at its first click.
Going back to a single level removes the rooms of the deleted levels after confirmation; Undo restores them.
The PDF rental contract then shows one plan per level.
View the plan in 3D
From the layout, click View the 3D plan to see the home in volume. The saved plan is also offered to visitors on the public property page. For a duplex or triplex, use Level shown to see all stacked levels or just one; staircases, elevators and lifts connect the levels (steps, translucent shaft).
