Overview
Real Estate CRM platforms typically store People (contacts), Companies, Opportunities (deals), Notes, Tasks, and may include custom objects for property listings, transactions, or agent performance tracking. Twenty CRM mirrors this structure with its own People, Companies, Opportunities, Notes, and Tasks standard objects plus an unlimited Custom Object model. FlitStack AI migrates the full record graph by pulling data via each platform's export or API endpoints, mapping source fields to Twenty's corresponding objects and creating custom fields for any source‑only properties. Owner resolution runs by email match against Twenty workspace members. During the pre‑migration audit, FlitStack profiles record counts, detects duplicates, and flags missing required fields, ensuring a clean data set before import. The migration skips attachments, email/engagement history, workflows, and automations — those must be rebuilt in Twenty's workflow builder post‑migration. For Real Estate CRM exports that exceed Twenty's 20,000‑record CSV export limit, FlitStack sequences API‑based batch pulls using cursor pagination, chunking up to 5,000 records per request to stay within both platforms' rate limits. A delta pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any new or changed records during cutover, and an audit log records every insert, update, or skip. If reconciliation detects mismatches, one‑click rollback reverts the Twenty workspace to its pre‑migration state.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Real Estate CRM 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.
Real Estate CRM
Contact / People
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Real Estate CRM contacts map directly to Twenty's People object, which stores name, email, phone, job title, address fields, and a companyId relation linking each person to its associated company. Owner assignments from Real Estate CRM resolve by matching the owner email to Twenty workspace members before record insertion, preserving the original createdAt and updatedAt timestamps as custom datetime fields for audit continuity.
Real Estate CRM
Company / Organization
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Real Estate CRM company records map to Twenty's Companies object, which holds the company name, domain/website, industry, employee count, annual revenue, and a full address compound field (street, city, state, postal, country). If the source includes custom pick‑list values for industry, FlitStack creates matching select options in Twenty before import, ensuring clean mapping without manual correction.
Real Estate CRM
Deal / Opportunity
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Real Estate CRM deals map to Twenty Opportunities. Each Opportunity links to a Company via companyId and optionally to a Person via peopleId. Stage names require value-by-value mapping because Real Estate CRM pipeline stages and Twenty Opportunity stages rarely share identical labels.
Real Estate CRM
Pipeline / Pipeline Stage
Twenty CRM
Opportunity Stage (custom field)
1:1Real Estate CRM pipeline stages become a custom Select field on the Twenty Opportunity object. Each source stage label maps to a defined Twenty select option. Stage probability values are stored as a separate custom Number field for reporting continuity.
Real Estate CRM
Lead Status / Lifecycle Stage
Twenty CRM
Custom field on People
1:1Real Estate CRM may use lifecycle stage or lead status to track where a contact sits in the sales funnel. Twenty has no native equivalent, so FlitStack creates a lifecycle_stage__c custom Select field on the People object with the exact values from the source system.
Real Estate CRM
Note / Free-Form Note
Twenty CRM
Note
1:1Notes from Real Estate CRM migrate to Twenty Notes, linking each note to a People or Company record via targetId and targetObjectName. Rich‑text formatting is retained when the source export provides HTML; plain text imports without formatting loss. Any source‑only metadata (e.g., note category) is stored as a custom text field on the Twenty note for future reference.
Real Estate CRM
Task / To-Do / Follow-Up
Twenty CRM
Task
1:1Real Estate CRM tasks and to‑dos migrate to Twenty Tasks, attaching to a People, Company, or Opportunity via the linkableObjects array. Task status (open/done), due date, and assignee are resolved by matching the assignee email to a Twenty workspace member; unresolved assignees are flagged for team‑level remediation. Original createdAt timestamps are preserved as a custom datetime field for historical tracking.
Real Estate CRM
Custom Object: Property / Listing
Twenty CRM
Custom Object
1:1Many Real Estate CRM setups include a Property or Listing custom object holding address, listing type, price, status, and agent assignment. This maps to a Twenty Custom Object named 'Property' — fields map individually and the object links to the relevant Company or Opportunity.
Real Estate CRM
Custom Object: Transaction
Twenty CRM
Custom Object
1:1Transaction records from Real Estate CRM — including commission amount, close date, buyer/seller party, and property reference — migrate to a Twenty Custom Object named 'Transaction'. Foreign keys to People and Company are resolved using email and domain lookup keys respectively, ensuring referential integrity before the transaction rows are inserted. Any source‑specific fields not present in Twenty's standard schema become custom fields defined during schema design.
Real Estate CRM
Owner / User / Agent
Twenty CRM
WorkspaceMember (via email resolution)
1:1Real Estate CRM owner IDs map to Twenty workspace members by email address lookup. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — the team either invites those users to Twenty first or assigns records to a designated fallback workspace member. Source owner IDs are preserved as a custom field for audit.
Real Estate CRM
Attachment / File
Twenty CRM
File (manual re-upload)
1:1File attachments stored in Real Estate CRM are exported to a local file store and delivered alongside the migration package. Twenty's file upload is a UI-based operation — FlitStack provides a file manifest so your team can re-associate attachments to the correct records post-migration.
Real Estate CRM
Engagement / Activity History
Twenty CRM
Note / Activity Log (partial)
1:1Real Estate CRM may log call records, email threads, and meeting history as engagement objects. Twenty's activity model is simpler — calls and meetings are not native record types. FlitStack preserves the text content of recent engagement records as Notes on the relevant People record; historical activity is flagged as a rebuild candidate in Twenty.

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.
Real Estate CRM gotchas
Contact type categorization schema varies across real estate CRMs
Closing date attachment logic is platform-dependent
Multi-source contact deduplication is required before migration
Document attachments are not always accessible via CRM API
Agent owner assignment fails for inactive or deleted users
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 source data and design the Twenty schema plan
FlitStack pulls a full export from your Real Estate CRM via CSV export or API, depending on what the platform exposes. We profile the record counts by object, identify custom fields and pick-list values, and audit data quality (duplicate detection, missing required fields, malformed dates). Simultaneously, we review Twenty's current data model and deliver a schema setup plan: which custom Select fields need their option values defined, which custom objects need to be created, and what the import order will be. Your Twenty workspace admin (or FlitStack's implementation team) creates the schema before data moves.
Invite and resolve workspace members by email
Twenty requires that any user referenced as a record owner or assignee must exist in the workspace before the import can link to them. FlitStack extracts all owner and assignee emails from the source export, matches them against the list of invited Twenty workspace members, and flags any unmatched users. Your team either invites those users to Twenty before migration or designates a fallback workspace member to receive unassigned records. No record lands in Twenty without a resolvable assignee — this prevents orphaned records that have no linked owner.
Migrate Companies first, then People, then Opportunities and Tasks
Twenty enforces referential integrity: the Company record must exist before a People record can link to it via companyId. FlitStack sequences the migration in strict dependency order. Companies (and any custom objects that have no relations) migrate in the first pass. People and custom objects with companyId relations migrate in the second pass, now that the companyId foreign keys can resolve. Opportunities and Tasks follow in the third pass, referencing both People and Company IDs. This sequencing is determined by the migration plan and executed automatically by the FlitStack import engine.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff before the full run
Before committing the full dataset, FlitStack runs a sample migration on a representative slice — typically 100 to 500 records spanning People, Companies, Opportunities, and any custom objects. We generate a field-level diff comparing the source field values against the Twenty record values so you can verify that stage names mapped correctly, owner resolution worked, and custom field values landed as expected. You review the diff and approve before the full migration run commits. Any mapping corrections happen at this stage.
Execute full migration with delta pickup window and rollback available
The full migration runs against Twenty using the validated mapping. A delta pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any records created or modified in Real Estate CRM during the cutover period. FlitStack maintains an audit log of every record inserted, updated, or skipped. If reconciliation detects record count mismatches or data integrity failures, one-click rollback reverts the Twenty workspace to its pre-migration state. After rollback confirmation, the full run can be re-executed with corrected mapping logic.
