ForaPost Catalog Maker for Real Estate — Real estate listing catalog

Why Catalog Maker works for real estate

Each listing is a natural catalog item — it has a title, photos, details, and a time-sensitive event (the open house). Catalog Maker lets you turn every listing into a content engine that promotes itself automatically with the right timing.

The biggest advantage? Open house scheduling. Set a listing as an Event with lead-up days, and your AI Manager ramps up posts before the open house and stops after — no manual intervention.

What to catalog: Active listings (Property tag), open house events (Event), sold properties (Social Proof), neighborhood tours (Education), and agent spotlights (Person).

  • Create a separate catalog item for the listing AND the open house event so posts are distinct.
  • When a listing sells, change the tag to Social Proof and update the description with sale story.
  • External Link should go directly to the MLS listing page.
  • Use Treat as Event with 7-day lead-up for open houses and 14 days for luxury listings.
