ListingKit – AI Property Import

Import, sync and migrate your entire property catalog into WordPress — free. ListingKit is a free real-estate property import plugin that brings listings from almost anywhere — CSV, XML, live feeds, portals, CRMs, or another WordPress site — into your site and publishes them as native properties for your theme, photos and all. No developer, no copy-paste, no duplicate typing. Point it at a file, a feed URL, or another site, confirm the column mapping (it's filled in for you automatically), and click import. That's it.

ListingKit is made by ListingPress. The plugin is 100% free and does all the importing on its own. Connect a free ListingPress account only when you want the AI and automation add-ons (unique AI descriptions, scheduled auto-sync, lead capture). ListingKit = the free WordPress plugin. ListingPress = the service behind it.

• Real-estate agencies & brokers moving a portal or CRM catalog onto a new WordPress site.
• Houzez, RealHomes and WPResidence users who want listings as native properties, not a messy paste.
• WordPress developers & freelancers building property sites for clients on a deadline.
• Anyone migrating themes — e.g. RealHomes → Houzez — without losing data.
• Sites that pull a live feed (Kyero, Property Finder, Resales-Online, REDSP) and need it to stay in sync.
• US real-estate agents & brokers importing from their MLS over the RESO Web API — MLS Grid, Trestle (CoreLogic), Spark or Bridge.

Why ListingKit?

• Import from truly any source — files, live feeds, portals, CRMs, or site-to-site.
• Native listings, not shortcodes — full Houzez / RealHomes / WPResidence fields, taxonomies and galleries.
• Automatic field mapping — a built-in dictionary (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French) fills the mapping in for you.
• Gentle on shared hosting — imports run in small background batches; big catalogs import steadily.
• Read-only on the source — the plugin never changes the site or feed you import from.
• No lock-in, no account needed — manual importing is free forever.
• Optional AI + automation — unique descriptions and scheduled sync when you want them, via ListingPress.

Features: import from any source

• CSV files — any spreadsheet export from a CRM or portal.
• XML files — saved exports of any shape.
• Live XML feeds — paste a feed URL; new listings keep arriving on later runs.
• Portal & CRM feeds, auto-detected — Kyero, Resales-Online, Property Finder and REDSP (v3, v3 Extended and v4) are recognised and mapped in one click.
• CRM & MLS APIs — pull listings straight from an API, no feed file needed: Pixxi CRM, Property Finder (Enterprise API) and US MLS via the RESO Web API (MLS Grid, Trestle / CoreLogic, Spark, Bridge). These connect through a free ListingPress account.
• Site-to-site (WordPress → WordPress) — copy listings from another WordPress real-estate site, including RealHomes → Houzez and Houzez → Houzez migrations, with custom fields carried over.

Whether your data lives in Kyero, Resales-Online, Property Finder, Pixxi CRM, a US MLS (RESO), a REDSP feed, an IDX/CSV/XML export, or another WordPress real-estate site, ListingKit maps it and imports it for you. Theme compatibility Listings are created as proper properties for your theme:

• Houzez — fully-mapped native listings: type, status, beds, baths, size, plot, price, location/map, features, energy rating, custom fields and the photo gallery.
• RealHomes — native listings incl. year built, plot/lot size and energy rating.
• WPResidence — native estate_property listings.
• Any other theme — a clean, complete listing page with the details and gallery.

The active theme is detected automatically — the same import lands natively wherever you run it. Automatic field mapping A built-in dictionary matches your columns to the right fields — including common Spanish, Portuguese and French names — so mapping is usually a quick confirmation, not a chore. Columns that don't match a standard field can be mapped to your Houzez Fields Builder custom fields, or sent to "Additional details" — you adjust anything before importing. AI descriptions — why AI, and how it helps When you import listings, the portal descriptions are identical to what's already on hundreds of other websites. Google calls that duplicate content, and it quietly buries your listings — so your beautiful new site doesn't rank. Connect a free ListingPress account and Rewrite with AI turns each imported description into unique, SEO-friendly copy, so search engines treat your listings as original. More original content = a better shot at ranking = more enquiries. Free accounts include AI rewriting on your first listings; paid ListingPress plans add unlimited rewriting. Automatic synchronization (scheduled auto-sync) Your first import is a one-time job — but a property catalog is a living thing: new listings appear, prices change, properties sell. With a ListingPress plan you can put your source on a schedule (hourly, twice-daily or daily) and ListingKit keeps your site current automatically — new listings added, sold ones updated, prices corrected — with no one at the keyboard. Re-runs are smart: unchanged listings are skipped, and your manual edits (drafts, deletions) are respected. Typical workflow: Houzez → Houzez migration

1. Install ListingKit on both the old site and the new Houzez site (free).
2. On the source site, open Settings → ListingKit and copy the export key.
3. On the new site, open Property Import → Another WordPress site, paste the source URL + key.
4. Click Start import — properties, photos, features, taxonomies and custom fields transfer as native Houzez listings.
5. (Optional) Connect a free ListingPress account and enable Rewrite with AI so the migrated descriptions are unique.

The same flow works for RealHomes → Houzez, or for a CSV/XML/feed source. Free vs Pro Free (this plugin, no account needed):

• Unlimited manual imports from CSV, XML, live feeds, portals, CRMs and other sites
• Native Houzez / RealHomes / WPResidence publishing + automatic field mapping
• Site-to-site migration (incl. RealHomes → Houzez) with custom fields
• Duplicate cleanup, SEO alt text, background batching
• A few AI-rewritten descriptions to try

Pro (with a ListingPress account, listingpress.io):

• Unlimited AI-rewritten, duplicate-free descriptions
• Scheduled automatic synchronization (hourly / daily)
• Buyer lead-capture pages
• Property brochure generator (branded PDFs)

Install the plugin

1. In WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New and search for "ListingKit – AI Property Import", then click Install and Activate. (Or upload the plugin ZIP via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.)
2. Open the new Property Import menu in the admin sidebar.

Run your first import

1. Choose a source — a CSV/XML file, a feed URL (Kyero, Property Finder, Resales-Online, REDSP…), a Pixxi CRM account, or another WordPress site.
2. Confirm the suggested field mapping (map any extra columns to your Houzez custom fields if you like) and click Start import.
3. Watch it publish native listings with photos. Large catalogs import steadily in the background.

Unlock AI + auto-sync (optional)

1. Click Connect a free account to link ListingPress, then enable Rewrite with AI for unique, SEO-friendly descriptions — and set a schedule for automatic synchronization on a paid plan.

Site-to-site (e.g. Houzez → Houzez) Install ListingKit on both sites, copy the export key from Settings → ListingKit on the source site, then on the destination choose Property Import → Another WordPress site and paste the source URL + key.

1.21.1

• The entry paid plan is now called "Autopilot" (was "Auto Sync"). Display-name only — no functional change.

1.21.0

• New: the import source picker now shows the CRM & MLS API sources too — Pixxi, Property Finder (Enterprise API) and US MLS via the RESO Web API (MLS Grid, Trestle, Spark, Bridge). Each is marked with a badge and, when you pick it, explains how to connect a free ListingPress account to import straight from that API (your credentials stay in ListingPress). File, feed and site-to-site imports still run on this site with no account.

1.20.1

• Plugin page: the "See it in action" walkthrough now shows as a clickable link in the in-dashboard plugin browser (not only as an embed on wordpress.org), and the plugin author now links to listingpress.io. No functional changes.

1.20.0

• New: import listings from US MLS systems over the RESO Web API. One source covers MLS Grid, Trestle (CoreLogic), Spark and Bridge — pick your provider, paste the base URL and your access token (or OAuth client ID/secret for Trestle), and listings are pulled and mapped automatically (price, beds/baths, size, lot, address, coordinates, photos and features) using the RESO Data Dictionary. Includes the same optional "match types & statuses to existing terms" preview as the other API sources. (Access to an MLS requires a data agreement with that MLS.)

1.19.0

• New: when importing from an API source (Pixxi or Property Finder), you can now preview a live sample and match each property type and status to a term that already exists on your site — so imports reuse your existing terms instead of creating near-duplicates (e.g. "APARTMENT" mapping to your existing "Apartment"). Mapping is optional; skip it and values are created exactly as the API sends them. Your choices are saved and reused on scheduled runs.

1.18.0

• Fixed: importing from a site (or feed) after the source address was entered a slightly different way — with or without a trailing slash, www, or http vs https — could re-import the whole catalog as duplicates instead of updating the existing listings. The source address is now matched in a normalized form, so re-runs correctly update. A one-time cleanup on update also re-links any duplicates left by this issue so the built-in "Duplicate cleanup" tool can remove them.
• New: scheduled re-imports now skip listings whose source hasn't changed since the last run — no wasted database writes, taxonomy or image work — so recurring auto-sync is much faster and far lighter on your hosting. Only listings that actually changed are updated.
• New: site-to-site migrations now carry over custom Houzez fields (created in Houzez Fields Builder), including multi-value checkbox and multi-select fields — not just the standard property fields. The custom fields themselves are recreated on the destination site automatically, so the imported values display right away with no manual re-setup (existing fields are never overwritten).
• New: CSV/XML/feed columns can now be mapped straight into your Houzez Fields Builder custom fields from the import wizard.
• Improved: the plan comparison now shows all three tiers — Free, Auto Sync and Pro — including which include scheduled automatic syncing.
• New: WpResidence is now fully supported as both a destination and a source. Feed/CSV/XML imports publish native WpResidence properties (price, beds/baths, size, land, energy, map, gallery, video and taxonomies), and site-to-site migration can move listings from a WpResidence site into Houzez (or another WpResidence site) — install the plugin on both sites and point the importer at the source.

1.17.0

• New: site-to-site migration from a RealHomes site into Houzez. The source site's RealHomes fields (price, size, plot, beds/baths, garage, year, energy, address, map, type/status/city, features and the photo gallery) are read natively and published as Houzez properties. Install the plugin on both sites, generate the key on the RealHomes site, and point the Houzez site's importer at it.

1.16.0

• Fixed: feed and file imports no longer freeze after the first few properties on hosts where WordPress's background scheduler (WP-Cron) is disabled or blocked — a very common setup. Imports now drain reliably while the import screen is open, with no dependence on background cron.
• New: feed, CSV and XML imports now publish native properties on RealHomes and WpResidence too — previously only Houzez received the full data. The active theme is detected automatically. RealHomes now also receives year built, plot/lot size and energy rating.
• New: energy rating / class is now imported (Kyero/REDSP feeds) to Houzez and RealHomes.
• New: one-click preset for REDSP v4 feeds (redsp.net), including its nested address/size fields and its on/off amenity flags, which are turned into readable property features.
• Improved: Kyero / REDSP v3 feeds now map the feed's own multilingual title and postal code when present, and default to metric (m²) sizes.

1.15.6

• Fixed: uploading an XML (or occasionally a CSV) file could be rejected with "Sorry, you are not allowed to upload this file type," because WordPress mis-detects the file's type. Import uploads now accept .csv/.xml reliably.

1.15.5

• Fixed: Start and Continue now respond instantly. They previously waited for a whole batch of properties to finish before the screen could update, so the button looked like it had done nothing while the import was already running.

1.15.4

• Fixed: on sites with a page cache (LiteSpeed and similar), the import screen could be served a cached status — so a stopped import still looked like it was running and you had to clear the cache to see the truth. The plugin's own requests are now excluded from caching.

1.15.3

• Fixed: Stop is now recorded separately from the import's progress, so a batch still finishing can no longer undo it — a stopped import stays stopped through page refreshes and background runs. Also fixed a stale "Import stopped at…" message showing while an import was running.

1.15.2

• Fixed: a stopped import could restart itself. Stopping is now final — only you can resume it, with Continue. Automatic resuming and scheduled runs leave a stopped import alone.

1.15.1

• Fixed: "Stop" now reliably halts an auto-running import. A batch that was already in progress could previously overwrite the stopped state and resume itself; it now checks for a stop before continuing.

1.15.0

• Imports now run all the way to the end on their own — no more pausing every 20 properties and clicking "Continue". The progress screen updates live until the import finishes, and an import that was mid-way resumes automatically.

1.14.0

• Re-imports now respect your manual changes: a listing you set to draft stays draft (its status is never forced back to published), and a listing you delete is remembered and never silently re-created on a later import. Restoring a listing from Trash re-enables syncing for it.

1.13.2

• New: a "Duplicate cleanup" tool on the Property Import screen removes extra copies of the same property left by earlier imports (keeping the original of each), right from the browser — no technical access needed. Manually-created listings are never touched.

1.13.1

• Fixed: a single import lock now prevents overlapping import passes, which could otherwise import the same property more than once when the runner was triggered from several places at once.

1.13.0

• Imported photos now get SEO alt text automatically — the source image's own alt on site-to-site imports, or a clean description built from the property title on every other source. Existing alt text is never overwritten, and image captions/descriptions are copied from the source when present.

1.12.0

• First public release.
• Import property listings from CSV or XML files, live XML feeds (Kyero, Resales-Online, Property Finder and other formats — auto-detected), or another WordPress site.
• Automatic field mapping, published as native Houzez, RealHomes and WPResidence properties, with a clean fallback on any other theme.
• Imports run in background batches to stay gentle on shared hosting; source sites are read-only.
• Optional AI-rewritten, duplicate-free descriptions and buyer lead-capture pages via a free ListingPress account.
