Apto to HubSpot
Commercial real estate CRM and deal management for brokers, built on the Salesforce platform.
Apto data can move into HubSpot, landing mainly in Sales Hub. 3 of 8 mapped objects move directly (Contacts, Companies and Deals); 3 items need manual work and 2 do not move. Plan roughly 3-5 weeks for a small move and 10-16 weeks for a large one.

The three scenarios
Small migration
up to 10k contacts and 1k deals
Core objects only.
Mid migration
10k-50k contacts, 5k deals, properties
Custom Property object and workflows.
Large migration
50k+ contacts, many properties and activities
Back-office and multi-integration rebuild.

Access, mapping and limits
Start with how data leaves Apto: what you need to get in, what lands in HubSpot, and what will not.
Salesforce platform APIs (REST/Bulk) inherited from the underlying org; Apto-specific API docs not found
Salesforce org login or integration user; connected-app details not verified
Choose your route
How will you move the data?
No native connector was found.
- You need: Salesforce org login or integration user; connected-app details not verified
- Permission: To confirm
Native imports often bring over only some data, so check coverage per object in the mapping below.
Export each object, clean it, then import it into HubSpot.
- Salesforce-level data export and reports (assumed from the platform; not verified in Apto docs)
- Bulk API extraction via ETL tools (category-level)
Limits: To confirm
Migration and sync tools can move more than a plain import. Confirm which objects each one supports before you choose.
Best when volume is high, custom objects are many or automation is heavy. That is the Large scenario: 10-16 weeks, usually phased.

Hover or tap anything on the left to see where it lands.
| Source object | In HubSpot | Moves | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contacts | Contacts | yes | Contacts are a core Apto object. |
| Companies | Companies | yes | Apto links contacts to companies and properties. |
| Leads (buyers/sellers) | Contacts | partial | Lead tracking exists. The mapping to HubSpot lifecycle stage and lead status needs design. |
| Deals | Deals | yes | Apto has deal and pipeline management. Stages and profiles (Listing, In Contract, Closed) need mapping. |
| Properties / spaces | Custom objects | partial | Properties are first-class objects in Apto. They have no native HubSpot equivalent and need a custom object. |
| Tasks and activities | Tasks | partial | Interaction history needs to be mapped to engagements. |
| Viewings / appointments | Meetings | manual | Appointments are mentioned. The export format is unverified. |
| Commissions and invoices (back office) | Custom objects | manual | Back-office add-on; retain it in an accounting system. |
What to expect
Out of scope for a CRM move; keep the existing MLS and syndication tools.
Retain in the system of record where required.
Apto relies on Salesforce workflow and approval automation.
HubSpot has no native property or space object.
Existing integrations sync via Salesforce.
Ask Buildout in writing for a full data export or API access.
Confirm contract end date and support terms with Buildout.
Run a field-level mapping workshop.
Audit the Notes & Attachments volume first.
Data governance and compliance
Decide what is allowed to move before anything is exported. Tick each gate once it is agreed.
