   Tip: A monthly mortgage amount creates a recurring expense in your transactions when you save, so do not add that expense yourself as well.

6. Step 6

   Move the pin and save

   If the pin on the map is not quite on your property, drag it to the right spot. Then click Save Changes.

   On a property in France, the same form has Registration number (déclaration en mairie) under France: registration number: the number the town hall gave you when you declared the furnished tourist rental. It is printed on the police forms your guests sign: see The registration number.

   Tip: Your guest page can have a photo of its own: see Add a photo and your times.

Delete a property

Deleting a property cannot be undone. Everything that belongs to it goes with it.

   Delete

   Open the property and click Delete in the top right. On the My Properties page, the bin next to the property does the same.

2. Step 11

   Check what goes with it

   Casitana lists what goes with the property: its bookings, transactions and receipts, tasks, cleaning and maintenance, rental contracts, calendar links and photos. It also says what stays: documents, contacts and guests. To delete it, type the property’s name in the box: Delete property only works once the name matches, and capitals don’t matter. Cancel leaves everything as it is. Anything of that property in the trash goes too. A deleted property does not go to the trash: it cannot be restored.

   Good to know: A property with stays filed with SES Hospedajes (sent by Casitana or marked as filed by hand) cannot be deleted, even after you cancel those stays. On the property’s page, Casitana says why: “This property has stays filed with SES, so it cannot be deleted. Deleting it would erase the records needed to withdraw or prove those filings.”

In the appApp

1. Step 1

   Edit a property in the app

   Open the property from Properties and tap the pencil at the top right. Edit property opens with the fields of a new property and also Spain Compliance (tourist licence, SES establishment code, arrendador account), SES Owner Details, Calendar Sync, Rental Contract, Pricing and the switch Create cleaning tasks automatically.

2. Step 2

   The photo, and the contract template

   From the Starter plan, the property’s page has Add photo under Now, or a camera button on the photo it already has: take a picture or choose one from your library. Only the account holder sees Remove photo. Under Rental Contract, Open on web opens the property on the website, where the contract template is edited: Rental contracts.

3. Step 3

   Delete a property in the app

   Only the account holder sees Delete property, at the bottom of Edit property. The app lists what goes with the property: bookings, transactions and receipts, tasks and maintenance records, rental contracts and photos. Documents, contacts and guests stay. You type the property’s name to confirm and tap Delete. It cannot be undone, and the property does not go to the trash.

   Good to know: A property with stays filed with SES cannot be deleted. The app says: “This property has stays filed with SES, so it cannot be deleted.”
