Connecting Rex to WordPress means your property listings are entered once, in Rex, and appear on your website automatically. Dev Mizan’s property importer keeps them in sync on a schedule using the API or XML feed method, with photos, prices and statuses included. It works with Houzez and other popular real estate themes.
Rex is a real estate CRM used by agencies in Australia and New Zealand.
How the Rex to WordPress import works
Depending on what your Rex account offers, the importer connects through its API or an XML feed export. We confirm the best route with your account during setup. Either way the result is the same: on each scheduled run, new Rex listings are created on your website and changed ones are updated.
Imports run automatically: hourly on the free plan, or every five minutes on paid plans. Listings that are withdrawn in the CRM can be removed from the website automatically with the auto-delete option on the Pro plan. Listings are matched by their Rex reference, which prevents duplicates even if a title or price changes.
What gets imported from Rex
- Reference, title and full description
- Price, currency and rent frequency
- Status (for sale, to let, sold, let agreed or off-plan)
- Property type, bedrooms, bathrooms and size
- Location: city, area or community, plus map coordinates
- Photos, floor plans, video and virtual tour links
- Features and amenities
- Assigned agent and branch
Each field is mapped to the matching field in your theme. Custom fields can be mapped too, so property search filters, maps and agent pages all use the imported data.
Why it matters for Australian agencies
Australian buyers expect the same listing details on your website as on realestate.com.au and Domain, including inspection times, sold results and the latest photos. Because most Australian CRMs already produce REAXML for the portals, the same data can update your WordPress website automatically.
Setting up Rex on your website
- Share your Rex account details for the API or data feed. We will confirm which one to use.
- We map the fields to your theme and run a first import on a staging copy, so you can check real listings before anything goes live.
- Once you are happy, the schedule is switched on for the live website.
- New enquiries from property pages can also be sent back to your CRM with the listing reference attached.
What you need: Access to your Rex account details for the API or feed. We help you find exactly what is needed.
Works with your WordPress theme
The Rex import is built for Houzez, and also supports themes such as WP Residence, Real Homes, Real Estate 7 and MyHome. Because the connection is separate from the design, you can redesign or change theme later without losing the integration.
