What is BLM Format?
BLM (Business Listing Management) is the industry-standard property feed format used by Rightmove and supported by most UK property CRM systems. Our integration allows you to automatically sync your property listings using BLM format feeds directly to BritishProperty.uk, ensuring your listings are always up-to-date without manual work.
Whether you're listing properties for sale or to rent, our integration handles everything automatically - from property details and images to status updates and new listings. Compatible with GNB Property Feed and any CRM system that exports BLM format.
