Reference numbers on shared listings

Every agency has its own short code. Shared listings get your number on your website, brochures and feeds; your own listings keep the numbers they already have.

Reference numbers on shared listings

When you market a listing that belongs to another agency in the network, two reference numbers exist for the same property: theirs and yours. This page explains which one appears where, and why nothing you have already sent to a client stops working.

How it works

  • Every agency has its own short code. It is assigned from your agency name and does not change - for example EH or ADM.
  • A shared listing gets your number under your code, such as ADM-8ELEZ3. The listing agency keeps their own reference (for example EH-100016) - both point at the same property.
  • Your own listings keep the numbers they already have. Nothing you have printed, published or sent to a client is renumbered.
The rule in one line: the public portal shows the listing agent's reference. Your website, your brochures and your feeds show yours.

Where you will see each number

  1. On your website and microsites. Every property shows your number, whether the listing is yours or came from another agency in the network. A buyer browsing your site never sees another agency's reference.
  2. In the CRM. A shared property shows both numbers: yours first, then the listing agent's. Quote theirs when you ring the other agency about it.
  3. On the public portal (propertylist.es). Buyers see the listing agent's own reference.
  4. In brochures and marketing material. Whatever you generate carries your number.
  5. In your website feeds. Shared listings in a paid feed carry your code; your own listings keep their original reference. See Export Listings XML.

Searching by reference

Good to know

  • Nothing to set up. Your code exists already and shared listings are numbered automatically the moment they appear on your site.
  • Two numbers, one property. If a client quotes a reference from another agency's site, search for it - it resolves to the same record.
  • Your code is fixed. It is derived from your agency name and is not editable, so references you hand out stay valid.

Watch it: 50 seconds

Reference numbers: a shared listing keeps the listing agent's reference in the CRM, your MicroSite shows your number, and search finds the property by either. All the video guides.
