Overview
CRM for Real Estate stores data in a conventional object-relational model: contacts, companies, deals, activities, and custom objects with typed fields and foreign-key relationships. Monday CRM uses a board-and-column architecture where contacts live in the People entity, companies in the Companies entity, and deals become items on a pipeline board with Status, Number, Date, and Person column types. The core translation challenge is reshaping a relational graph into flat board items while preserving the associations that give deals their context — which contacts are involved, which company owns the transaction, which agent is responsible. FlitStack AI sequences the migration so parent entities load first, then children resolve their foreign keys using email-based owner matching against Monday users. Deals land on the pipeline board as items, with pipeline stages becoming Status column groups. Custom fields map to the nearest Monday column type, and anything that requires a non-existent type gets surfaced as a custom field for post-migration configuration. Activity history (calls, emails, meetings, notes) consolidates into an Activities board linked to contacts via Connect Boards. FlitStack uses the source API to export data, transforms records into Monday's bulk-import format, runs a test slice, then executes the full migration with a 24–48h delta-pickup window. Workflows, automations, email templates, and third-party integrations do not migrate and must be rebuilt in Monday's automation recipes.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a CRM for real estate object lands in monday CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
CRM for real estate
Contact
monday CRM
People entity (Monday CRM)
1:1CRM for Real Estate contacts map to Monday People. Monday's People entity stores name, email, phone, job title, location, and social links. Primary company assignment maps to Monday Companies via the Company field. Owner assignment uses Monday's Person column resolved by email match against Monday users.
CRM for real estate
Company
monday CRM
Companies entity (Monday CRM)
1:1CRM for Real Estate company records map to Monday Companies with company name, domain/website, industry classification, employee count, and annual revenue. Parent-child company hierarchies map using Monday's parent-company relationship field if available, or as a custom text reference with a post-migration cleanup task.
CRM for real estate
Deal / Property Listing
monday CRM
Pipeline board item (Monday CRM)
1:1CRM for Real Estate deals — including property listings with addresses, listing prices, and listing statuses — map to Monday items on a pipeline board. The pipeline stages become Status column groups in Monday. Property-specific fields (address, price, listing type) map to Text, Number, and Status columns respectively.
CRM for real estate
Pipeline Stage
monday CRM
Status column group (Monday CRM)
1:1CRM for Real Estate pipeline stage names map to Monday Status column groups. Each group holds items at that stage. Stage probability and forecast category are preserved as Number and Status columns for reporting continuity. Stage-transition timestamps are stored as Date columns if available.
CRM for real estate
Task / Follow-up
monday CRM
Task item (Monday CRM)
1:1CRM for Real Estate tasks and follow-up items map to Monday items on a Tasks board. Task subject, due date, priority, and assignee map to Text, Date, Status, and Person columns respectively. Linked contacts and deals use Connect Boards to maintain the relationship post-migration.
CRM for real estate
Activity (Call / Email / Meeting / Note)
monday CRM
Activities board item (Monday CRM)
many:1CRM for Real Estate calls, emails, meetings, and notes consolidate into a single Monday Activities board with a Type column to distinguish them. Each item stores subject, body/content, timestamp, owner, and linked contact reference. Monday's Activity integration can surface these within People and Deal boards.
CRM for real estate
Custom Object (e.g., Property, Transaction)
monday CRM
Custom board (Monday CRM)
1:1CRM for Real Estate custom objects — such as property records or transaction logs — map to Monday custom boards. Each custom property becomes a Monday column chosen by nearest type. Enterprise-tier Custom Objects can be used for more formal entity definitions. N:N relationships require Connect Boards to replicate.
CRM for real estate
User / Owner
monday CRM
Monday user (by email)
1:1CRM for Real Estate owner IDs resolve to Monday users by email match, with addresses normalized to lowercase to improve match rates. Any owner lacking a Monday account is flagged before migration, and you can either create the user first or assign a configurable fallback owner so that no imported item lands without an owner. After migration, a reconciliation list allows you to update any remaining unmatched owners.
CRM for real estate
Attachment / File
monday CRM
Files on Monday items (re-upload)
1:1CRM for Real Estate file attachments on contacts, companies, deals, and activities are downloaded and re-uploaded to the corresponding Monday items as file attachments. Monday's file storage limits apply per plan tier. Files are linked to the parent record they were attached to in the source.
CRM for real estate
Workflow / Automation
monday CRM
No equivalent (manual rebuild required)
1:1CRM for Real Estate workflow rules, sequence triggers, and automation logic do not migrate. FlitStack exports workflow definitions as a reference document for your Monday admin to rebuild using Monday's automation recipes. Any Zapier or Make integrations built on source triggers also require rebuilding.
CRM for real estate
Email Template
monday CRM
No equivalent (manual rebuild required)
1:1CRM for Real Estate email templates and notification rules have no direct Monday CRM equivalent. Templates can be exported as HTML or plain‑text files and recreated in Monday's email sequence tools or used with integrated email services. Marketing automation logic — lead scoring, drip campaigns, conditional triggers — requires a separate platform outside Monday CRM, such as HubSpot, Marketo, or Zapier.
CRM for real estate
Report / Dashboard
monday CRM
Monday dashboards (manual rebuild)
1:1Reports and dashboards in CRM for Real Estate reference underlying data that migrates successfully, but the report definitions themselves do not transfer. Monday's dashboards can be configured on Standard+ plans using migrated data as the source. FlitStack documents the source report structure for your team to reference.

Migration approach
Audit source data and plan Monday workspace structure
FlitStack connects to CRM for Real Estate via API or admin export, profiles the record counts per object, identifies custom fields and their data types, and flags duplicate and incomplete records. Simultaneously, we map the source schema to Monday's board-and-column model and deliver a workspace setup plan: board names, column types, Status group labels, and which boards need Connect Boards or subitem structures for complex relationships.
Export and transform source data
We export contacts, companies, deals, activities, and custom objects from CRM for Real Estate in their native formats. Each record is cleaned (date normalization, phone formatting, duplicate deduplication) and transformed to match Monday's column type requirements. Custom fields that lack a direct Monday equivalent are mapped to the nearest available column type and flagged in the mapping manifest for your admin's review.
Resolve owners by email match
CRM for Real Estate owner IDs are matched against Monday user accounts by email address. Before migration, any owner record lacking a matching Monday user is flagged in the migration manifest. Your team then either creates the corresponding Monday user account beforehand or assigns a designated fallback owner — such as an admin account — to ensure no imported item lands without an assigned owner. All email lookups are validated for format, and unmatched owners are logged for review.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–300 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities — is imported into Monday first to validate the entire mapping workflow. FlitStack generates a field-level diff that contrasts source values against Monday column values, exposing any misaligned pipeline stage labels, incorrectly typed custom fields, or missing owner assignments. This preview lets your team confirm property address translations, activity type classifications, and relationship wiring before the full dataset commits, reducing the risk of bulk errors.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full dataset loads into Monday boards, with FlitStack batching records to respect API rate limits for each plan tier. Once the initial load finishes, a delta‑pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any new or updated contacts, companies, deals, or activities created in CRM for Real Estate during the cutover period. All operations are recorded in a detailed audit log, and a one‑click rollback mechanism can reverse the import if reconciliation reveals mismatches between source and Monday values, ensuring data integrity throughout the transition.
Deliver relationship map and rebuild reference for Monday admin
FlitStack delivers a post‑migration relationship map that enumerates each Connect Board and Mirror Column required to re‑establish contact‑deal, company‑contact, and parent‑child associations in Monday. The package also includes the exported workflow definitions from CRM for Real Estate, formatted as a reference JSON, so your Monday admin can rebuild automation recipes step‑by‑step. Alongside this, a setup checklist highlights any additional permission adjustments, testing steps, and validation queries to confirm that all links are functional before go‑live.
