Overview
REIPro stores real estate investment data in a vertically-specific schema: Contacts as People, Companies as Property records, Deals as Investment opportunities, and a 10-step workflow system that enforces a rigid investor pipeline. REIPro also maintains property analytics (ARV estimates, repair costs, MLS comps), skip-tracing credits, and marketing tools tied to a per-user pricing model. Nutshell is a general-purpose SMB CRM with four primary objects: Person (contacts), Company, Lead, and Deal. Nutshell uses pipelines with configurable stages, a standard activity model (Tasks, Events, Notes), and custom fields on Person, Company, and Lead records. Nutshell does not have a native property-records object — real estate data maps into Company or Person records with custom fields, and investment metrics (purchase price, ARV, rehab estimate) become Deal custom fields. We migrate all REIPro People, Companies, Deals, and activity history into Nutshell's equivalent objects. Custom fields for real estate metrics (ARV, repair estimate, property type, MLS number) are created as Nutshell custom fields on the appropriate object. The REIPro 10-step workflow cannot migrate — Nutshell uses task-based pipelines instead, so we export the workflow definitions as a rebuild reference. Skip-tracing credits, marketing campaign data, and built-in marketing tools have no Nutshell equivalent and must be reconstructed.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a REIPro object lands in Nutshell, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
REIPro
REIPro Person
Nutshell
Nutshell Person
1:1REIPro Person records (contacts) map directly to Nutshell Person objects. Core fields including name, email address, phone number, physical address, and record owner transfer without transformation. Any custom fields attached to the Person record in REIPro — such as investor_type, lead_source, or investment_strategy — migrate to corresponding Nutshell custom fields on the Person object, maintaining all associated data values.
REIPro
REIPro Company (Property Record)
Nutshell
Nutshell Company
1:1REIPro Company records store comprehensive property data including street address, MLS listing number, property classification type, and tax assessment information. These records map to Nutshell Company objects, with real estate-specific fields like MLS number, property type, and tax assessed value migrated as custom fields on the Nutshell Company record. The property owner's name becomes the Company name field.
REIPro
REIPro 10-Step Workflow
Nutshell
No equivalent
1:1REIPro's 10-step Workflow Tracker spanning Find → Analyze → Offer → Contract → Inspection → Appraisal → Title → Funding → Closing → After-Closed has no Nutshell equivalent. Nutshell employs pipeline stages with task-based activities instead of sequential workflow enforcement. We export the complete workflow step definitions as a detailed rebuild reference document for your Nutshell administrator to recreate the workflow logic.
REIPro
REIPro Property Analytics
Nutshell
Nutshell Custom Fields
1:1Property-level analytics including ARV estimates, repair cost estimates, MLS comps, and property condition scores have no direct Nutshell equivalent object. These metrics migrate as custom fields on Nutshell Deal records, named to correspond with source field names such as ARV_Estimate__c and Repair_Cost__c. Your Nutshell administrator must pre-create these custom fields before the migration run.
REIPro
REIPro Activity (Call, Email, Note, Task)
Nutshell
Nutshell Task / Note
1:1REIPro activity records including calls logged, emails sent, notes attached, and tasks created map to Nutshell Tasks and Notes objects. Original timestamps, assigned owners, and linked Person, Company, or Deal references are preserved throughout the migration. Call duration and outcome data migrate as custom fields on the corresponding Nutshell Task record.
REIPro
REIPro Owner / Team Member
Nutshell
Nutshell User
1:1REIPro owner IDs are resolved by matching against Nutshell Users via email address. When a Nutshell User account exists with a matching email address, the record owner assignment transfers automatically. Owner records without a Nutshell match are flagged during pre-flight validation — your team either creates Nutshell user accounts or assigns those records to a designated fallback owner before migration.
REIPro
REIPro Custom Fields (Person)
Nutshell
Nutshell Custom Fields on Person
1:1REIPro custom fields attached to Person records including investor_type, lead_source, and investment_strategy map to Nutshell custom fields on the Person object. Field data types including text, numeric values, and pick-list selections translate directly where possible. Nutshell enforces a maximum of 100 characters for custom field names, which your administrator should verify during field creation.
REIPro
REIPro Custom Fields (Deal)
Nutshell
Nutshell Custom Fields on Deal
1:1REIPro custom fields on Investment Deal records such as wholesale_fee, equity_amount, and exit_strategy map to Nutshell custom fields on the Deal object. Value mapping is applied for pick-list type fields to ensure correct enumeration values transfer. All Nutshell Deal custom fields are created in advance of the migration run to prevent import failures.
REIPro
REIPro Skip-Trace Credits / Usage
Nutshell
No equivalent
1:1REIPro skip-trace credit account balances and per-contact usage history records have no Nutshell equivalent object or field. These data points are preserved as a reference export in CSV format but do not map to any Nutshell record type. Teams planning to use Nutshell IQ for prospecting purposes should prepare to rebuild outreach workflows and re-establish credit allocations with their chosen provider.
REIPro
REIPro Direct Mail Campaigns
Nutshell
No equivalent
1:1REIPro's built-in direct mail engine including postcard templates, mailing list generation features, and printing service integration does not have a Nutshell counterpart. Campaign definitions, template configurations, and mailing list setups are exported as reference CSV files for use when rebuilding communications in Nutshell's email marketing add-on or a third-party direct mail platform.
REIPro
REIPro Lead Sources
Nutshell
Nutshell Custom Field on Person
1:1REIPro tracks which lead source generated each contact including categories like MLS referrals, bandit signs, cold call campaigns, and website inquiries. This information migrates as a pick-list type custom field on the Nutshell Person object labeled Lead_Source__c. All pick-list values from REIPro are mapped on a value-by-value basis to corresponding entries in the Nutshell custom field.

Migration approach
Audit REIPro schema and generate custom field creation plan for Nutshell
Before any data moves, we extract the full REIPro field schema — standard fields plus custom fields on People, Companies, and Deals. We cross-reference this against Nutshell's standard fields and generate a custom field creation checklist for your Nutshell admin. Each real estate metric (ARV, repair estimate, MLS number, property type) is mapped to a proposed Nutshell custom field name and type. Your team creates these fields in Nutshell during the planning phase so the import pipeline is ready before validation runs.
Match REIPro owners to Nutshell users by email
REIPro owner IDs are resolved by email match against Nutshell Users. We generate a pre-flight owner report listing every REIPro owner with a Nutshell match, a pending Nutshell account, or no match. Unmatched owners are flagged — your team either creates Nutshell users before migration or assigns records to a fallback owner. No record lands in Nutshell without a valid owner assignment. This step prevents orphaned records and ensures pipeline attribution is correct on day one.
Migrate Companies (Property records) before Deals
REIPro Company records (property addresses, MLS numbers, tax assessed values) migrate to Nutshell Company records first. These must land before Deals because Nutshell Deal records link to a Company via the company_id field. We preserve property owner associations by linking the Nutshell Company to the corresponding Person record where a match exists. Once all Companies are in Nutshell, the Deal migration can resolve foreign-key references correctly.
Migrate People and link to Companies
REIPro Person records (investors, sellers, buyers, partners) migrate to Nutshell Person records. Each Person is linked to the corresponding Company (property record) where applicable. Custom fields for investor_type, lead_source, and investment_strategy are populated during import. Activities (calls, emails, notes) linked to each Person are queued for the next step. Owner assignment resolves via the email-match report generated in Step 2.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of records migrates first — typically 100–500 records spanning People, Companies, Deals, and Activities. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values against destination values so you can verify custom field mapping (ARV_Estimate__c, Repair_Estimate__c, Property_Type__c), pipeline stage mapping from the 10-step workflow, and owner resolution before the full run commits. Any mapping errors are corrected before the full migration batch opens.
Full migration with delta-pickup and audit log
Full migration runs against Nutshell using the validated field mapping. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any REIPro records modified during the cutover window — new contacts added, deals advanced, notes logged — so Nutshell reflects REIPro's final state at go-live. An audit log captures every import operation including record counts, error rows, and transformation applied. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation fails.
