Listings
Overview
To advertise a property, open it → the Listings tab → click the Actions button → New Listing, work through the listing wizard, then on the Publish your listing step choose where to advertise and click Publish listing. Manage a live listing from its dashboard — Share Listing or QR Code, Edit it to pause notifications, or Withdraw listing.
Create and publish a listing
Note: You need at least 3 photos before Keyhook will publish the listing. For property managers, the premium Trade Me upgrade is billed per your agency's contract terms — no card on file is required.

Pause enquiry notifications
Note: Pausing only stops the notifications — the listing stays live and renters can still enquire and apply. Auto-withdraw listing in the same section is on by default, so Keyhook takes the advert down on its own once a tenancy is confirmed — switch it off there if you want the advert to stay up afterwards.
Withdraw a listing
Note: Once a listing is withdrawn, additional fees may be required to re-post it — withdraw only when the property is genuinely no longer being advertised.
Frequently asked questions
Does publishing put my listing live straight away?
Yes — the listing goes live and starts advertising as soon as you click Publish listing.
How many photos do I need to publish?
At least 3. Keyhook won't let the listing publish until you've added them, and the first photo is used as the main image.
Do enquiries stop when I pause notifications?
No — pausing only stops the notifications reaching you. Renters can still enquire and apply, and everything still lands on the listing. Auto-withdraw listing is on by default, so the advert is taken down automatically once a tenancy is confirmed — switch it off if you want the advert to stay up.
How do I take a listing back down?
Use Withdraw listing — it removes the advert from every platform and ends the listing. (Note additional fees may apply to re-post it later.)
Can I change a listing after it's published?
Yes — open the listing and click Edit to update the description, price, photos, features and settings, then click Update Listing. If you re-list the same property later, Keyhook pre-fills the wizard from the previous listing.
