Beginning January 20, our MLS vendor, FBS Data, will be updating the way floor plans from any source are managed, displayed, and integrated within Flexmls.
Floor Plans Will Have Their Own Media Category
When editing or adding a listing, there will be a new section called Floor Plans, where you can upload floor plans. The process to upload and manage a floor plan will be similar to the current process for uploading and managing photos.
Accepted file types for floor plans include all currently accepted photo file types (JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, HEIC, BMP, TIF, TIFF, PBM). Maximum accepted file sizes are also the same as maximum accepted photo sizes (15 MB or 3000 x 2000 pixels). PDFs are not currently an accepted file type for floor plans. MLS watermarks will also be applied to all uploaded floor plans.
Improved Display for Floor Plans When Searching
Listings with a floor plan will now have a “Floor Plan” tag on Android, Mobile Web, and Portals, similar to the 3D Tours or Price Change tags you see today. Users are also able to search for listings with floor plans in Quick Search using the Additional Search Options. Here’s what the updates will look like on your portal.
FlōPlan Floor Plans
Any FlōPlan floor plans that are currently linked to listings will automatically be migrated to the new floor plan category on the FlōPlan sunset date (1/31/2025). Floor plans that are not linked to listings will not be migrated over to the new floor plan category.
