Overview
PropFlo is an AI-powered real estate CRM built for developers and agents, with domain-specific objects for AOS generation, demand notes, and unit inventory management. Freshsales is a sales CRM from Freshworks that handles leads, contacts, accounts, and deals with Freddy AI for contact lifecycle scoring and deal insights. The two platforms share a record-model foundation (contacts, companies, deals, activities) but diverge sharply on real estate specificity: PropFlo's AOS numbers, demand notes, unit types, and booking stages have no Freshsales equivalents and require custom fields or custom objects post-migration. We extract PropFlo data via API using scoped read access, transform the real estate-specific fields into Freshsales custom fields, and load through the Freshsales REST API. PropFlo's approval flows and WhatsApp-integrated workflows cannot migrate and must be rebuilt using Freshsales' automation module — we export workflow definitions as a reference document for your Freshsales admin. Custom fields are created in Freshsales before data lands, and a delta-pickup window captures any records modified during the cutover.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a PropFlo object lands in Freshsales, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
PropFlo
Contact
Freshsales
Contact
1:1PropFlo contacts map directly to Freshsales contacts. Freshsales requires a primary AccountId on most contact records — PropFlo contacts without a company association are attached to a default 'Unassigned Account' or merged by email if a matching contact already exists.
PropFlo
Lead
Freshsales
Lead
1:1PropFlo leads map to Freshsales leads. Freshsales leads convert to contact, account, and deal on manual conversion. Lead fields migrate including custom properties. If your PropFlo instance does not use a separate lead module and all records are contacts, this object is skipped.
PropFlo
Company
Freshsales
Account
1:1PropFlo companies map to Freshsales accounts. When mapping parent and child company hierarchies, we use Freshsales' Parent Account lookup field to preserve organizational relationships. If a single PropFlo contact is associated with multiple companies, we assign the primary AccountId based on the most recent interaction or your specified priority rule, and additional company associations are stored as Account Contact Relationships for complete relationship visibility.
PropFlo
Deal
Freshsales
Deal
1:1PropFlo deals map to Freshsales deals. The deal name, amount, close date, owner, and custom fields transfer. PropFlo's real estate-specific deal stages (site visit confirmed, booking form submitted) are stored as a custom stage field since Freshsales' native deal stages are sales-oriented and cannot accommodate real estate-specific terminology without customization.
PropFlo
Pipeline
Freshsales
Deal Status + Custom Field
1:1PropFlo pipelines map to Freshsales Deal Status pick-list values. If PropFlo uses multiple pipelines such as separate pipelines for each property project, we preserve the original pipeline name as a custom text field (Pipeline_Source__c) on the Deal record. This enables segmentation and reporting across property projects in Freshsales without requiring separate Freshsales pipelines.
PropFlo
Pipeline Stage (real estate)
Freshsales
Custom Stage Field + Deal Stage
1:1PropFlo real estate stages such as 'Site Visit Confirmed', 'Booking Form Submitted', 'Agreement Drafted', and 'Registration Done' have no Freshsales native equivalent. We create a custom pick-list field (RE_Stage__c) on the Deal object, preserving stage names and their original transition timestamps for audit continuity. This ensures your historical stage progression data remains intact and viewable within Freshsales.
PropFlo
AOS (Allotment Order Status)
Freshsales
Custom Object: AOS_Record__c
1:1PropFlo AOS records — which track the allotment status, plot or unit reference, and agreement status per buyer — have no Freshsales standard object equivalent. We create a custom object (AOS_Record__c) linked to the Contact and Deal via lookup fields, preserving the AOS number, unit ID, and status value. The custom object maintains referential integrity so you can navigate from contact or deal records directly to their associated AOS information.
PropFlo
Demand Note
Freshsales
Custom Object: Demand_Note__c
1:1PropFlo demand notes are financial instruments tracking payment milestones per unit booking. They migrate as a Freshsales custom object (Demand_Note__c) with fields for note number, amount, due date, and status. The object links to the parent Contact and Deal for traceability, allowing your team to see all demand notes associated with a particular buyer or property transaction directly within the Freshsales interface.
PropFlo
Activity (Call, Email, Meeting)
Freshsales
Task / Event / Sales Activity
1:1PropFlo activities map to Freshsales tasks representing calls and emails, and events for meetings. Original timestamps, owners, and the associated contact or deal reference are all preserved during migration. PropFlo WhatsApp message logs are stored as task records with a custom WhatsApp source flag, maintaining the communication history within Freshsales alongside other interaction types.
PropFlo
Note
Freshsales
Note
1:1PropFlo notes migrate to Freshsales notes attached to the parent record. Basic rich-text formatting transfers successfully. Notes originally created by specific users retain their original owner assignment for audit continuity, ensuring accountability and traceability of communication history within the migrated dataset.
PropFlo
Attachment / File
Freshsales
Freshsales Files
1:1PropFlo file attachments are re-uploaded to Freshsales Files and linked to the parent Contact, Account, or Deal record as appropriate. Freshsales file storage limits vary by plan tier, with Growth providing 2GB per user, Pro offering 5GB per user, and Enterprise plans including 100GB of file storage capacity for larger migrations.
PropFlo
User / Owner
Freshsales
User
1:1PropFlo owner IDs are resolved against Freshsales users by matching email addresses. Any unresolved owners where users have not yet been provisioned in Freshsales are flagged before migration proceeds and assigned to a designated fallback owner. The original PropFlo owner identity is preserved in a custom text field for complete audit trail continuity regardless of post-migration user assignments.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Pre-flight audit and schema setup plan
We connect to your PropFlo instance via scoped API read access and audit your record counts, custom field inventory, pipeline configurations, and real estate stage definitions. We simultaneously deliver a Freshsales schema setup plan: custom fields (RE_Stage__c, Lifecycle_Stage__c, Property_Interest__c, Pipeline_Source__c), custom objects (AOS_Record__c, Demand_Note__c), and stage value mapping rules. Your Freshsales admin creates these before data lands. We validate the setup before proceeding to the migration run.
Owner resolution by email match
PropFlo owner IDs are resolved against Freshsales users by matching email addresses. Unmatched owners — users not yet provisioned in Freshsales — are flagged with a report and assigned to a designated fallback owner. We preserve the original PropFlo owner identity in a custom field (Owner_Source__c) so the audit trail is complete regardless of which Freshsales user is assigned post-migration.
Sequenced migration: contacts and accounts first, then deals, then activities and files
Freshsales requires AccountId on Contacts and Contact lookups on Deals before deals can be saved. We sequence the migration: (1) Accounts from PropFlo companies, (2) Contacts and Leads with AccountId resolution, (3) Deals with deal owner assignment and stage mapping, (4) Activities and Notes, (5) Files re-uploaded to Freshsales Files and linked to parent records. AOS and demand note custom objects are created last after their parent Contact and Deal records exist.
Sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff showing every source value, mapped destination field, and any transformation applied. You verify that PropFlo lifecycle stages map to Freshsales Lifecycle_Stage__c correctly, real estate stages land in RE_Stage__c, AOS numbers appear on the linked AOS_Record__c object, and owner resolution is clean. No records are deleted or overwritten in Freshsales until you approve.
Full migration with delta-pickup and audit log
The full migration runs against Freshsales via the REST API. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any PropFlo records modified or created during the cutover. Every API operation is logged — record created, updated, skipped, or failed — with source and destination IDs for reconciliation. One-click rollback reverts all migrated records to the pre-migration state if a critical issue surfaces during validation.
