How to Integrate with Realtor.com

We appreciate your patience as we work to bring you an updated experience in connecting RealScout to Realtor.com. 

RealScout now offers a new way to integrate with Realtor.com: utilizing an API Key for faster lead delivery. If you previously used the integration, you must manually re-integrate to ensure it works properly. Below, you will see the steps to reconnect and what to expect from this integration. 

Important:

• Realtor.com permits only one API connection per agent. If you connect directly to RealScout, you will not be able to use the same API connection to feed leads into other systems.
• If you previously used the integration using the email version of our integration and not the API key, you will need to re-register using the new instructions to continue receiving leads. 

How to integrate for the first time or re-integrate:  

Step 1: Sign in to your RealScout account and navigate to the Integrations tab.

Step 2: Scroll down to the Realtor.com section.

Step 3: Click the Get API Key button.

Step 4: Follow the instructions in this article from Realtor.com: Lead API Quick Start. (https://support.realtor.com/s/lead-api-quick-start) 

Step 5: Please note that you should use the “Other Application" example in the above instructions. For now, use that option, upon any changes we'll update the steps here.

Step 6: You, the agent, must input your Realtor.com and RealScout account information. The integration info will be available on the RealScout Integrations page, specifically in the Realtor.com section.

FAQs & What to Expect from the RealScout x Realtor.com Integration

 
After the integration is connected, RealScout will attempt the following:

• New Realtor.com leads will be sent to RealScout (one-way)
  
  
• Existing leads cannot be backfilled from RealScout to Realtor.com 
  
• For new leads with property data from Realtor.com into RealScout, RealScout will attempt to make a basic listing alert (search) with the following criteria:
  - Minimum Price: 70% of property price
  - Maximum Price: 115% of property price
  - Location: Zip Code of property
  - Name: “${price} in {ZipCode}”
  
  
• RealScout will not push the Realtor.com leads to other integrations/CRMs if you have them connected to RealScout, as they may already be connected to Realtor.com
