This guide explains how to assign tags to specific properties in bulk using an import file. Tagging helps categorize and filter properties efficiently across marketing, fulfillment, and operational processes.
Purpose
The primary goal of this import is to assign one or more tags to a list of properties. These tags allow you to:
Segment properties for campaigns
Flag special cases (e.g., Skiptraced, Audantic, DNC, Litigator)
Improve tracking and reporting across workflows

Required Fields | Property Address , Property Zip |
Tag Columns | Include one or more columns named Tag , Tags , or specific tag names |
Matching Logic | Tags are assigned using a combination of Property Address + Zip Code |
You can use multiple tag columns (e.g.,

) or a singleTags
column with comma-separated values.
