Import-XML-to-EzRealty
EzRealty can now automatically take property feeds from the agents you work with and import them into your Database. This means that you can offer their properties on your EzRealty website as if they were your own (or as if you had typed them in one by one). Which means you can multiply the selling power of your Website importing XML feeds from your collaborators or other Real Estate agencies.
Think about it. Imagine if you could offer potential buyers, say 500 properties rather than the ones you have right now? They wouldn’t have to look any further. And because you are local, you can work with your collaborators to offer all the best properties in your area.
it is a fully automatic system. It imports, updates and deletes properties from your agents into EzRealty every day, and is completely transparent to the EzRealty user. No delays, no buttons to hit or boxes to remember to check, it simply imports the properties you need, fast.

Should to be able to import XML2U formats and have some method of mapping fields from different agents so its compatable with those I have created in ez realty
* Fully configurable XML import templates (something like in CSV Importer) + option Copy/Download this template (needed so estate agent has the template to prepare his XML).
* Estate Agent can start XML import manually from his profile administration
* Import from XML file on URL.
* Import - create new Listings and add it to correct agent
* During next update from XML listings synchronization (missing/deleted/changes etc (timestamp?)...
* Log of Imported Listings where in case or errors
* Property/agent Images import (stored in ezr-file system)
