Overview
Zillow Premier Agent is a paid lead-generation and advertising platform with a lightweight contact manager built into the Premier Agent app. It tracks leads using a fixed set of 13 statuses (New through Closed, plus Nurture and Trash) and can push updates to a connected CRM via two-way sync, but it has no native pipeline stages, no opportunity model, no activity logging beyond notes, and no automation engine. Odoo CRM uses a structured lead-to-opportunity model (crm.lead) with configurable Kanban stages, team-based pipelines, AI lead scoring, drag-and-drop quotations, and an integrated suite of business apps (sales, accounting, inventory) that Zillow Premier Agent cannot provide. The migration carries Zillow contacts and their status history into Odoo crm.lead records, mapping each Zillow status to a corresponding Odoo stage (New, Proposition, Negotiation, Won, Lost). Zillow's per-lead advertising spend and zip-code auction data have no Odoo equivalent and are preserved as reference fields for post-migration analysis. Odoo automations, team routing rules, and quotation templates must be rebuilt from scratch — we export your Zillow status definitions as a configuration reference so your Odoo admin can replicate the logic in Odoo's automation rules engine.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Zillow Premier Agent object lands in Odoo CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Zillow Premier Agent
Contact / Lead
Odoo CRM
crm.lead
1:1Zillow Premier Agent stores every person who submits a contact inquiry as a Contact record. Odoo CRM models all incoming prospects as crm.lead records. We map Zillow contact properties (name, email, phone, address, source) directly to crm.lead fields. Zillow does not split leads from customers — every record enters Odoo as a lead, which your team can convert to an opportunity when a transaction is identified.
Zillow Premier Agent
Lead Status
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.stage_id
1:1Zillow's 13 fixed statuses (New, Attempted Contact, Spoke with Customer, Appointment Set, Met with Customer, Showing Homes, Listing Agreement, Active Listing, Submitting Offers, Under Contract, Closed, Nurture, Trash) map to Odoo Kanban stages. We create a value-mapping table during discovery: Zillow's 'Met with Customer' becomes Odoo's 'Qualified', 'Active Listing' becomes 'Won' or a custom transaction stage, and 'Trash' maps to 'Lost'. Unmapped statuses are preserved in a custom reference field on the crm.lead record.
Zillow Premier Agent
Agent / Owner
Odoo CRM
res.users
1:1Zillow Premier Agent associates each contact with the advertising agent who owns the zip-code footprint. In Odoo CRM, contacts and leads are assigned to res.users records. We resolve Zillow agent email addresses against Odoo user accounts by email match. Unmatched agents are flagged for team assignment before migration commits, ensuring every Odoo lead has an owner.
Zillow Premier Agent
Note / Activity Log
Odoo CRM
mail.message / crm.lead.activity_ids
1:1Zillow Premier Agent stores agent-written notes on contact records. These migrate as mail.message records on the corresponding crm.lead in Odoo, with the original note body, creation timestamp, and agent attribution preserved. Odoo's chatter (mail.thread) model surfaces these as a chronological activity feed on each lead record.
Zillow Premier Agent
Lead Source
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.source_id
1:1Zillow marks each contact with a source label (e.g., Zillow Listing Contact, Zillow Search, Trulia, StreetEasy). These map to Odoo's utm.mixin source tracking. We create Odoo UTM sources (crm.lead.source_id) for each Zillow origin label so your team can report pipeline performance by original lead source in Odoo's reporting views.
Zillow Premier Agent
Listing / Property Association
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.x_zillow_listing_id (custom field)
1:1Zillow Premier Agent links contacts to specific property listings in some workflows. Odoo CRM has no native property-listing model. We create a custom Char field (x_zillow_listing_id) on crm.lead to store the associated Zillow listing ID as a reference string. If your team uses Odoo's real-estate or property management apps, those records can be linked by listing ID post-migration.
Zillow Premier Agent
Zillow Rating / Review Data
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.x_zillow_agent_rating (custom field)
1:1Zillow surfaces agent ratings and review counts on Premier Agent profiles. This data is Zillow-platform-owned and not available in the CRM export. We flag it as non-migratable and document it as a manual-rebuild item — the rating should be re-collected or sourced from Zillow's partner portal export post-migration if agent profile history is business-critical.
Zillow Premier Agent
Zip-Code Advertising Footprint
Odoo CRM
crm.team (Sales Team)
1:1Zillow Premier Agent purchases are structured as zip-code advertising territories. In Odoo CRM, crm.team objects represent sales teams responsible for geographic or product segments. We map each Zillow zip-code territory to a corresponding Odoo sales team (crm.team) so lead routing in Odoo can replicate your Zillow advertising footprint by territory.
Zillow Premier Agent
Monthly Advertising Spend
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.x_zillow_monthly_spend (custom field)
1:1Zillow Premier Agent billing is per-lead or per-zip subscription with no standard field in the contact record. If your team has tracked monthly spend in a Zillow custom field or spreadsheet, we create a custom Decimal field (x_zillow_monthly_spend) on crm.lead and import it as a reference. This is for financial reconciliation only — Odoo's accounting module handles actual billing.
Zillow Premier Agent
Integration / Sync Metadata
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.x_zillow_sync_id (custom field)
1:1When Zillow Premier Agent is connected to a third-party CRM via two-way sync, Zillow assigns a sync relationship ID to each contact. We store this as x_zillow_sync_id on the crm.lead record so teams can trace back which contacts were managed under the Zillow sync workflow and audit any duplicates that existed during the transition.

Migration approach
Discover Zillow data and export contacts
FlitStack AI initiates a scoped read of your Zillow Premier Agent contact export via the platform's data export tools. We pull all contact records, note metadata, and agent assignments. If you have been using Zillow's two-way CRM sync (Follow Up Boss, Top Producer, or other), we also inspect the sync payload schema to identify any custom fields that exist on those records. The discovery phase produces a data inventory: total contacts, note count, unique agent owners, custom property count, and status distribution. This inventory drives the scope and pricing proposal.
Configure Odoo CRM schema and custom fields
Before records are loaded, we set up the Odoo side. We create the custom fields on crm.lead (x_zillow_original_status, x_zillow_object_id, x_zillow_sync_id, x_zillow_listing_id, x_zillow_monthly_spend, x_zillow_premier_agent_flag) identified during discovery. We configure the Kanban pipeline stages to match Zillow's 13-status model (or your target stage design) and create UTM source records for each Zillow origin channel (Zillow, Trulia, StreetEasy). We also map zip-code advertising territories to crm.team records so lead ownership aligns with your Zillow footprint post-migration.
Resolve agent owners by email and stage ownership
We match Zillow agent email addresses against Odoo res.users accounts using exact email matching. Agents without a corresponding Odoo user account are flagged in a pre-migration owner-report. Your team either creates Odoo user accounts for those agents before the migration or assigns them to a fallback sales team. No lead is imported without a resolved or fallback owner. This prevents orphaned records that cannot be actioned in Odoo's pipeline view.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning new leads, progressed leads, and closed/won records — migrates first into a staging Odoo database. We generate a field-level diff report showing source values against destination field values for every mapped column. You verify stage mapping correctness, note body preservation, owner resolution, and zip-code-to-team assignment. This is the last checkpoint before the full run commits. Any mis-mapped statuses or missing custom fields are corrected before proceeding.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup cutover
The full contact set loads into the production Odoo database. A delta-pickup window of 24 hours captures any new contacts or status changes that occur in Zillow during the migration run. After delta-pickup, we run a reconciliation count (source total vs. destination total) and validate that no records were dropped or duplicated. The audit log records every insert operation. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts the Odoo database to its pre-migration state so you can re-run cleanly.
