How to Import your Property Portfolio to European.realestate

We’re excited to announce a powerful new feature for real estate agents and agencies: the European Real Estate XML Property Feed. This integration allows you to automatically synchronize your property listings with our platform, saving you hours of manual work while ensuring your properties are always up-to-date.

What is the XML Property Feed?

The XML property feed is an automated system that connects your property management software directly to European Real Estate. Instead of manually uploading each property, you create a data feed that our system reads automatically every day.

Think of it like this: You update a property in your own system, and within 24 hours, those changes appear on European Real Estate—no additional work required.

Why Should Agents Use the XML Feed?

⏰ Save Time

Manually managing listings on multiple portals can consume hours each week. With XML integration, you update once in your system, and the changes flow everywhere automatically.

🎯 Reduce Errors

Copy-pasting property details leads to mistakes. Automated feeds ensure accuracy by pulling directly from your source data.

📈 Stay Current

Price changes, status updates, new photos—everything syncs automatically. Your listings are always accurate and up-to-date.

🌍 Expand Your Reach

European Real Estate attracts property seekers from across the continent. Our platform covers 37 European countries, connecting you with international buyers and renters.

🔄 Scale Effortlessly

Whether you have 10 properties or 10,000, the XML feed handles them all the same way. Growth doesn’t mean more work.

How It Works

Getting started with XML integration is straightforward:

Step 1: Set Up Your Feed

Work with your website developer or property management software provider to generate an XML feed following our specification. Many popular real estate CRM systems already support XML exports.

Step 2: Test & Validate

Use our documentation and sample files to ensure your feed is correctly formatted. We provide validation tools to catch any issues before going live.

Step 3: Submit Your Feed URL

Send us your feed URL, and we’ll connect it to your European Real Estate account. From that point on, synchronization is automatic.

Step 4: Relax

Our system checks your feed daily and automatically:

  • Adds new properties
  • Updates changed properties
  • Removes properties no longer in your feed

You focus on selling; we handle the rest.


Who Is This For?

The XML feed is ideal for:

  • Real estate agencies with 50+ properties
  • Property developers launching new projects
  • Portfolio managers handling investment properties
  • International agencies operating across multiple countries
  • PropTech companies building listing platforms
  • MLS systems looking to distribute listings

If you’re still manually uploading properties, the XML feed will transform your workflow.
