Add Listing
From the Home page, click the Menu in the upper left corner and select Listings.
Note: To view or edit Published and Unpublished (or Partial) Listings, click on the appropriate icon. Click here for more information on editing listings in Paragon Connect.
Click + to add a new listing
Click Tax Autofill to import the tax data into your new listing, or Manual to add the information yourself. For this example, we have selected Tax Autofill.
In “Required Criteria,” enter the County.
In the “Additional” section, enter the property’s APN (Assessor Parcel Number) or Tax Id, or its Street Number and Street Name, then click Search.
Note: When searching for tax data by a property’s Street Number and Street Name, do not include a street direction (North, South, East, or West) or suffix (Ave., Blvd., etc.). For example, if the property is located at 225 Main St., enter “225” and “Main” in the respective search fields.
Confirm the results are correct, then click Autofill.
Select the property type, then click Create. For this example, we have selected “Residential.”
Click the photo icon and then click the + to add up to 75 photos.
- Click on the 3-dot menu to Reorder, Select All, and/or apply Bulk Labels.
- To delete photos, check the box at the top left of each one you want to get rid of and click the trash can icon.
- You can select several photos and then click the 3-dot menu to Add Labels to the selected photos, edit them with Image Editor, or Replace Photo.
- Click Save before proceeding to the next option.
- For a complete guide to adding and editing listing photos in Paragon Connect, click here.
Note: Photos that are not an accurate depiction of the property, such as staging photos or depicting HOA amenities, must be captioned as such.
Enter information for your listing in each section. Required fields are indicated with an asterisk and outlined in red.
Tools in the upper right corner include:
- Binoculars: Find/search in the listing input form
- Flag: Only show required fields

Select your status type – Active or Coming Soon. For Coming Soon, the Start Showing Date will be required.
Note: The Start Showing Date cannot exceed 21 days from when you input the listing.
For Active, the Start Showing Date field will not be required.
Continue entering all required and applicable fields and lockbox information, upload additional photos and any documents, and click Save.
Select either:
Publish: Your listing will be live on the MLS
Save Unpublished: Save as a partial or incomplete listing and finish later.
Note: If any required fields are missing information, or if the listing contains warnings or errors, a red exclamation point warning symbol and/or amber caution symbol will appear in the top right corner. Click on the symbols to jump to each field and update. Click the left or right “< >” arrows to go to the next field that needs attention. All errors must be corrected before the listing can be published. If you are unsure whether you’ve completed all required fields, click Save and Publish again.
When the listing is saved, Published listings will automatically be assigned a Multiple Listing Number. Unpublished listings will be assigned a temporary number.
When the listing is Published, you can click on the 3-dot menu to Validate Address Location, add an Open House or Broker Tour, and more.
