# Prospect statuses and priorities

> What each prospect status and priority means in My Prospects, and where you can set and filter by them.

A prospect is a property you have saved to work later. Each one carries a **Status** (where you are with it) and a **Priority** (how soon you want to act). You see both on each prospect in **My Prospects**, on the **Deal Search** page.

## Statuses

| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| **New** | You just saved the prospect and have not started on it. |
| **Researching** | You are looking into the property, the owner or the area. |
| **Contacted** | You have reached out to the owner or the seller. |
| **Ready to Analyze** | You have what you need to run the numbers on it. |
| **Passed** | You decided not to pursue it. |

You change a prospect's status from the **Status** dropdown on the **Edit** tab of the prospect's details. The **Status** filter above the list offers **All Status**, **New**, **Researching**, **Contacted**, **Ready to Analyze**, **Passed** and **Moved to Analysis**. **All Status** hides prospects you have passed on, so choose **Passed** to see them. A passed prospect's three-dot menu has **Restore**, which sets it back to **New**.

## Priorities

| Priority | Use it for |
|---|---|
| **Urgent** | A prospect that cannot wait. |
| **High** | A prospect to work soon. |
| **Medium** | A normal prospect. |
| **Low** | A prospect you will get to when you can. |

Set a prospect's priority from the **Priority** dropdown on the same **Edit** tab. Use the **Priority** filter to show one priority, or **All Priorities** to clear it. You can also sort the list by **Priority**, along with **Date Added**, **Value** and **Address**.

> **Note:** Statuses and priorities are for your own organizing. Changing them does not move a prospect into your deal pipeline. To do that, select **Analyze Deal** on the prospect and save the result to your pipeline.
