Create your first listing on DomuHQ

What you'll need before you start

Have these basics ready: full street address (DomuHQ uses Mapy.cz for autocomplete), the layout code (1+kk, 2+1, etc.), total area in m², monthly rent and security deposit, utilities breakdown, photos of every room plus the building entrance, and proof of ownership or right to sublet (cadastral extract, purchase agreement, or lease with subletting permission).

The 7-step listing wizard

Create new listing opens a guided 7-step wizard. You can save and exit at any point and resume later from your dashboard. The 7 steps:

1. Property Details

Property type (apartment, house, room in shared apartment), room configuration (Czech layout codes like 1+kk, 2+1, 3+kk), condition, total area in m², building details (floor, year built, building type), and energy class.

2. Location

Street address with Mapy.cz autocomplete. Choose address privacy (exact pin vs. nearest landmark for renter-side privacy). DomuHQ auto-detects nearby civic amenities (tram, metro, schools, grocery) from the address.

3. Pricing

Monthly rent, security deposit (capped at 3x rent under Czech law), agency commission if applicable, and a utilities matrix with 7 items (electricity, gas, water, heating, internet, building fees, waste) each flagged included in rent or separate.

4. Features & Utilities

Heating type, internet and cable specs, furnishing level (furnished / partly / unfurnished), in-unit equipment (dishwasher, washing machine, oven), and building amenities (elevator, parking, storage, balcony, garden).

5. Policies & Rules

Pets allowed, smoking allowed, parking arrangement, available-from date, minimum lease length, max occupancy, ownership type, and signing preference (electronic via DigiSign once live, or physical signing for now).

6. Photos & Media

Upload at least 3 photos per category across 5 required categories (so about 15 photos minimum). Maximum 100 photos per space. JPG, PNG, or WebP, up to 10 MB each. The system shows a quality score per photo and surfaces a bulk-upload tool if you've got a folder of them already.

7. Verify Documents

Proof of ownership or right to sublet: cadastral extract (výpis z katastru / list vlastnictví), purchase agreement, lease with subletting permission, or power of attorney. JPG, PNG, or PDF, up to 10 MB. You'll also tick consents for listing accuracy and the ČÚZK cross-check. IČO-verified agencies are routed through a separate flow and skip this step.

What happens after Publish

Submitting from the wizard moves the listing into In Review status, not live immediately. The DomuHQ team approves most listings within 1 business day. Once approved, the listing moves to Published and appears in renter search.

Pricing: list at the market, not above it

If you list 10% above the market rate, you'll get fewer enquiries and the listing will sit. The cost of two weeks empty almost always exceeds the upside of a slightly higher rent. The platform shows you the median price for your district and layout combo as a sanity check while you fill in the price field.

After the listing is live

You'll see applications, messages, and saved-to-shortlist events appear in your host dashboard. For your first week, refresh once or twice a day and reply to enquiries within a few hours, the fastest replies tend to convert into viewings.
