In Mews Multi-Property, you can create and manage custom groups of properties within your portfolio. This helps you to organize and manage your portfolio, by grouping your properties according to shared features, such as country, city, or currency. You can customize your Property groups and save time by creating rates and vouchers directly from the Property groups screen.  

You can use Property groups to: 

• Standardize your rates and vouchers between properties with similar settings.  
• Create dynamic pricing or unique rate/ voucher strategies per group. 
• Group properties under the same brand, for brand-specific monitoring and reporting.  
• Group properties by type, to manage package deals. 
• Group properties in specific regions together to strategize rates and distribution or assign them to a particular Revenue Manager. 

You can add to existing Property groups or create new groups. You can add multiple properties to a group at once, using the multi-select function. Note: You can only add those properties to Property groups that exist within your portfolio.
