Overview
Property Minder is a real estate-focused SaaS CRM built around IDX-website lead capture, drip campaigns, and neighborhood alerts for agents and brokerages operating since 1997. Its data model centers on Contacts, Companies, Deals, and Activity records with custom properties for real estate use cases. Twenty CRM is an open-source, GitHub-hosted CRM (AGPL-3.0) that launched v1.0 in 2024, offering People, Companies, Opportunities, Tasks, and Notes as standard objects, with custom objects available on paid Pro and Organization cloud tiers. We map Property Minder contacts to Twenty People, companies to Companies, and deals to Opportunities. Property Minder's drip campaigns and IDX-triggered automations have no native equivalent in Twenty's workflow builder — we export the campaign definitions as a rebuild reference rather than attempting a direct transfer. Owner resolution runs by email match against Twenty workspace members. Activity history (calls, emails, meetings, notes) migrates as Twenty Tasks and Notes with original timestamps preserved. The migration uses Property Minder's API export and Twenty's REST/GraphQL import API on applicable tiers, with a scoped read-access window and delta-pickup covering in-flight changes during cutover.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Property Minder object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Property Minder
Contact
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Property Minder contacts map directly to Twenty People records. The People object stores name, email, phone, job title, and a companyId relation. HubSpot-style custom contact properties (lifecycle stage, lead source, etc.) migrate as Twenty custom fields on the People object.
Property Minder
Company
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Property Minder companies map to Twenty Companies records. Company names, domains, and industry classifications transfer directly. If Property Minder stores parent-child company hierarchies, the top-level company migrates first, and child companies reference it via a parentCompanyId custom field in Twenty.
Property Minder
Deal
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Property Minder deals map to Twenty Opportunities. Deal name becomes Opportunity name, amount transfers to a custom amount field (Twenty Opportunities lack a native currency amount field in all tiers — we flag this and recommend a custom field setup before migration runs). Pipeline and stage names migrate as select custom fields.
Property Minder
Contact Owner
Twenty CRM
WorkspaceMember
1:1Property Minder owner IDs resolve by email match against Twenty Workspace Members. If an owner email does not match a Twenty member, records are assigned to a designated fallback user and flagged for review. This step requires Twenty workspace members to be invited and active before migration begins.
Property Minder
Activity (Call, Email, Meeting, Note)
Twenty CRM
Task / Note
1:1Property Minder call logs, emails, and meetings migrate as Twenty Tasks with the task type preserved in a custom type field (Call, Email, Meeting). Meeting start/end times map to Twenty's due dates and custom datetime fields. Notes migrate as Twenty Notes with original body text and timestamps.
Property Minder
Drip Campaign
Twenty CRM
Workflow
1:1Property Minder drip campaigns (IDX listing triggers, open/click events, saved-search alerts) have no native equivalent in Twenty's workflow builder. We export campaign definitions including step order, delay intervals, and trigger conditions as a structured JSON document. Rebuild references are delivered alongside the migration so the team can recreate campaign logic in Twenty's visual workflow editor.
Property Minder
Custom Contact Property
Twenty CRM
Custom Field on People
1:1Property Minder custom fields on contacts (real-estate-specific properties like license number, preferred neighborhood, or buyer/seller type) map to Twenty custom fields on People. Twenty requires these fields to be created in Settings → Data Model before import — we deliver a custom field creation checklist as part of the pre-migration workspace setup plan.
Property Minder
IDX-Generated Lead
Twenty CRM
People + Custom Field
1:1Property Minder leads generated through IDX website interactions carry source metadata (listing viewed, search criteria) that does not exist as a standard Twenty field. We capture this as a custom field (Lead_Source_Detail__c) on People records so the original IDX context is preserved for reporting.
Property Minder
Attachment / File
Twenty CRM
Note
1:1Property Minder file attachments on contacts, companies, and deals re-upload as Twenty Notes with a link reference to the file stored in the configured storage backend. If the self-hosted Twenty instance uses local file storage, files are re-hosted on the same infrastructure during migration.
Property Minder
Contact-Company Association
Twenty CRM
People.companyId
1:1Property Minder's contact-to-company association (a contact may have a primary company) maps directly to People.companyId in Twenty. If a contact has multiple associated companies in Property Minder, the primary company becomes companyId, and secondary associations are captured as a custom multi-select field for admin reference.
Property Minder
Deal Stage
Twenty CRM
Custom Select Field on Opportunity
1:1Property Minder deal pipeline stages (Active, Under Contract, Inspection, Closed Won, etc.) map to a custom select field (Deal_Stage__c) on Twenty Opportunities. We document the value-by-value mapping before migration and recommend configuring the pick-list options in Twenty's Data Model settings prior to import to avoid import errors.
Property Minder
System ID / Create Date
Twenty CRM
Custom Fields on All Objects
1:1Property Minder's internal record IDs and original create timestamps are preserved as custom fields (Source_System_ID__c, Original_Create_Date__c) on all migrated objects. This preserves system provenance and supports delta-run de-duplication on future imports, maintaining audit continuity for reporting on deal age and contact tenure from the original Property Minder system.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Property Minder gotchas
MLS search assignments are not standard CRM objects
Automated follow-up sequences do not auto-migrate
Group memberships drive nurture logic—gaps cause silent sequencing failures
No documented public API for self-serve export
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Property Minder data and design Twenty workspace schema
We export all Property Minder objects via API (contacts, companies, deals, activities, attachments, custom field definitions) and audit record counts, data quality, and relational completeness. Simultaneously, we deliver a Twenty workspace setup plan: custom field creation checklist for all non-standard mappings, pick-list value configuration for deal stages and lead sources, custom object creation if applicable, and workspace member invitation list for owner resolution. The Twenty schema must be ready before any import batch runs.
Resolve owners and invite Twenty workspace members
Property Minder owner IDs are matched by email to Twenty Workspace Members. We generate a mismatch report identifying any Property Minder user without a corresponding Twenty member account. Your team sends and confirms workspace invitations for all unmatched users before the migration date. We assign unmatched records to a designated fallback owner and flag them for post-migration reassignment. No record migrates without a resolved owner.
Migrate Companies first, then People, then Opportunities
Following Twenty's import order constraint, we run Companies as the first batch (establishing the parent records for all relations). People import runs second with companyId relations resolving to the now-populated Company table. Opportunities import runs third with companyId and contactId relations resolving to migrated records. Each batch includes a pre-import validation pass confirming all mapped custom fields exist in Twenty's data model. Any rows that fail relation lookups are isolated and retried after the parent object batch completes.
Run sample migration with field-level verification
A representative sample (typically 200–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities) migrates first against the live Twenty workspace. We generate a field-level diff report comparing source values against the imported Twenty records for every mapped field. You verify that deal amounts, stage values, company relations, owner assignments, and custom property values all reflect correctly in Twenty's UI before we commit the full migration run.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup and cutover window
The full data migration runs against the Twenty workspace. A scoped read-access window on Property Minder remains open during the cutover period (typically 24–48 hours) capturing any records created or modified between the initial export and the live cutover date. Audit logs capture every import operation. After final validation, we deliver a reconciliation report and a one-click rollback script in the event that post-migration review uncovers mapping errors that require a re-run. Drip campaign export documentation is delivered alongside the data migration package for workflow rebuild planning.
