Mass creation of data in Django

I have a model Unit.

class Unit(CommonInfo):
    version = IntegerVersionField( )
    number = models.CharField(max_length=30,null=True, blank=True)
    max_occupants = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()
    floor = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()
    rooms = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()
    is_disabled_access = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    balcony_quantity = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()
    building = models.ForeignKey(Building)
    recomended_price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=7, decimal_places=2)

Each Unit has all property/s defined in Property table

class Property1(CommonInfo):
    unit = models.ForeignKey(Unit)
    is_true = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    propertytype = models.ForeignKey(Propertytype, related_name='propertytype')
    date = models.DateTimeField(null=True, blank=True)
    followup_date = models.DateTimeField(null=True, blank=True)
    quantity = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()

Is there a way to mass create all the property to all the units with some default value?

If this is for test code, do it with factory boy's RelatedFactory. See here. Avoid fixtures.

If this is a once-off task you need to do on pre-existing data, write a data migration. See here.

If this is something you want to happen automatically whenever a Unit is created, do it using a post_save signal handler. See here.
