MLSImport vs VistaWP – IDX Feeds for Page Builders

Connect your real estate website with MLSImport.com plugin to effortlessly sync, import, and manage MLS property listings, providing your users with up-to-date and accurate real estate information directly on your site. MlsImport is an IDX and MLS plugin for WordPress that downloads and synchronizes real estate listings from 800+ MLS (Multiple Listing Services) using the modern RESO Web API. It works by calling the MLSimport API and your MLS API, reading the data from your Multiple Listing Association, and transforming it into a WordPress-like format. You will need a valid access token from your MLS to use this plugin and an MLSImport account. The plugin now runs on ANY WordPress theme through its built-in standalone mode, and additionally offers deep, native integration with WPResidence, Houzez, Real Homes, and WpEstate. Works with any WordPress theme (IDX for Gutenberg & Elementor) MLS Import now includes a built-in standalone mode that renders its own property search, IDX listing cards, half-map search, single-property pages and agent profiles on ANY WordPress theme — no dedicated real estate theme required. Place listings anywhere on your site with shortcodes, Gutenberg blocks or Elementor widgets. Deep integration with the top real estate themes Prefer a dedicated real estate theme? MLS Import also offers deep, native integration with WPResidence, WpEstate, Houzez and Real Homes, importing MLS listings directly into each theme’s own property format so they behave exactly like listings you added by hand. If you are the owner of a real estate theme and want to be integrated with MLSimport, feel free to contact us. A modern WordPress IDX plugin built on the RESO Web API MLS Import is a modern WordPress IDX plugin that links your website to the MLS through the RESO Web API. Instead of embedding a slow third-party IDX iframe or relying on the old RETS protocol, it imports and synchronizes real MLS listings directly into your own WordPress site — for faster pages, full control of your content, and better SEO because the listings live on your own domain. RESO Standard Explained in Detail Direct Integration Our MLS solution smoothly brings your chosen properties directly into your WordPress website. Additionally, it optimizes performance by serving images from a content delivery network (CDN). Sync Listings Automatically MLS Import regularly updates your published property listings to match the most recent changes in MLS listings, ensuring that your website always displays accurate and up-to-date information. 800+ MLS Markets Coverage We can establish connections with more than 800 MLS markets in the United States and Canada. If you don’t see your specific MLS listed, please get in touch with us, and we’ll gladly assist you. CONNECT WITH US YouTube Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Use of 3rd party services This IDX plugin will connect via REST API to mlsimport.com and https://requests.mlsimport.com to get real estate data from your MLS. It will send your connection details and reply with real estate prepared to be imported into your website. Automated daily diagnostic report (telemetry): once per day, installations connected to a valid MLSImport account send an automated diagnostic “heartbeat” to the MLSImport service (https://requests.mlsimport.com). It helps us monitor the health of your installation and lets our support team detect problems — such as a stopped cron job, a failing MLS connection, or imports that produce no listings — before they affect your site. The report contains: an anonymous installation ID, your MLSImport account name and site URL, plugin / PHP / WordPress versions and the active theme, counts of listings imported / updated / deleted over the last 7 days, sync and MLS-feed health, the number of active listings and basic data-completeness percentages, your import-task settings, the dates of recent MLSImport admin-page activity, and onboarding progress. It does not collect any information about your site’s visitors. Installations that are not connected to an MLSImport account send no telemetry.
