Requirements

• A PropertyList account with administrative privileges.

Steps

1. Access the Export Section: Log in to your PropertyList.es account and navigate to the “Import & Exports” tab on the left-hand side menu.
2. Choose the feed destination: Click “Add Feed” and pick where the feed is going. Property portal sends your own listings to a portal (free; portal rules do not allow shared listings from other agencies). My own website can send everything - your own listings free, or all properties in the network including listings shared by other agencies for 35 credits a month.
3. Filter Properties (Optional): Customise which properties are included using the filters below. If no filtering is selected, the export will include all of your listings.
   • Private Notes: Add a note for this feed.
   • Property Order: Choose to order properties by newest or oldest first.
   • Max Listing Count: Set a maximum number of properties to export.
   • Include Sales: Checkbox to include properties for sale.
   • Set Prices (Sales): Select minimum and maximum sale prices.
   • Include Rentals: Checkbox to include properties for long-term rent.
   • Set Prices (Rentals): Select minimum and maximum monthly rental prices.
   • Location: Focus on specific areas by exporting listings within chosen locations.
   • Property Type: Select specific property types (e.g., apartments, villas, commercial spaces).
   • Bedrooms: Filter based on the number of bedrooms (e.g., studios, 1-bedroom, 2+ bedrooms).
   • Features: Filter based on available features like swimming pools, parking, or balconies.
   • Tags: Utilise any relevant tags you’ve assigned to your listings to further refine the export (e.g., “luxury”, “sea view”, “Idealista”).

   Each export has different criteria.

4. Initiate the Export: Click “Save” to start the export process. You will receive a confirmation message.
5. Obtain the XML URL: Upon successful export, PropertyList.es will provide an XML URL. Copy this URL to share it with other platforms.
6. Edit / Disable: You can edit or disable your feed in the “Import & Export” main section.

Notes

• Regular Updates: When you export to your website, it will be updated every 24h until you turn off the feature.
• Backup: Always keep a backup of your website and original listings before making any changes.

By following these steps and taking advantage of the optional filtering capabilities, you can export your property listings as a tailored XML URL on PropertyList.es.
