How to submit listings

• If you are a broker with over 100 listings or a third party provider

  All you need to do is follow the simple 4 step process:

  Step 1: Submit a feed request and tell us a little about yourself

  1. Are you an agent or a broker?
  2. Do you have a website?
  3. Are you affiliated with a major franchisor or independent broker?
  4. What is the name?
  5. Are you able to provide a listings feed?*
  6. How many listings do you have?

  *Note: Currently, we can only accept listings feeds from listings brokers, in xml or delimited text file format. Unfortunately we are not able to accept IDX feeds.

  Step 2: Complete the Licensing agreement

  We will email you a standard licensing agreement that authorizes us to display your listings on FrontDoor.com. The listing broker will need to sign and return the agreement to us via fax at: 212.398.0420, attn Broker feeds team.

  Step 3: Submit listings for testing

  To ensure we display the most accurate data possible, we require a feed in either xml or delimited text file format using the fields in our standard layout. Unfortunately we are not able to accept IDX feeds at this time.

  Detailed feed instructions are located here.

  Step 4: FrontDoor will push your listings live on the site

  We will test your feed file and your listings typically will go live on FrontDoor.com within five (5) business days of receipt of the file.

• If you are a broker with less than 100 listings

  Currently we are in beta mode and do not have options in place that address listings submissions for less than 100 listings. However, hang tight! Additional features will be made available later this year that will allow you to upload listings. We're working hard behind the scenes to get these live as soon as possible.

• If you are an agent

  Unfortunately we are still in beta mode and do not have options in place that address single listing submission. However, hang tight! Additional features will be made available later this year that will allow you to upload listings. We're working hard behind the scenes to get these live as soon as possible.
