New Query Parameters and Improvements

Our latest API release added many new query parameters to help you search for property records and listings more efficiently, improved API response times, and added several other improvements.

Check out the highlights below:

General Improvements

• Added support for theManufactured and Land property types across all endpoints. You can use these new types when using the propertyType query parameter, and you will also see them as part of the returned property and listing records
• Improved the performance of all endpoints across the board, so you should see decreased latencies when performing your requests

Property Records (/properties)

• Added a zipCode query parameter, which you can use to search for properties in a specific zip code
• Added a propertyType query parameter, which you can use to search for properties matching a specific property type
• Increased the maximum value of the limit query parameter to 500, so you can now retrieve up to 500 property records in a single request

Random Property Records (/properties/random)

• Increased the maximum value of the limit query parameter to 500, so you can now retrieve up to 500 random property records in a single request

Property Valuation (/avm/value, /avm/rent/long-term)

• Added a maxRadius query parameter, which you can use to control the maximum distance (in miles) of the comparable properties used in the valuation estimate calculations
• Reduced the minimum value of the daysOld query parameter from 15 to 1 day
• The AVM endpoints will now return 10 comparable properties by default (instead of 5) when the compCount query parameter is not provided

Property Listings (/listings/sale, /listings/rental/long-term)

• Added a zipCode query parameter, which you can use to search for listings in a specific zip code
• Added a propertyType query parameter, which you can use to search for listings matching a specific property type
• Added a status query parameter, which you can use to search for only active or inactive listings
• Added a daysOld query parameter, which you can use to filter listings that were posted within the provided number of days
• Increased the maximum value of the limit query parameter to 500, so you can now retrieve up to 500 property listings in a single request

Our API documentation has been updated to reflect the above changes and you can view it at any time to review the newly supported query parameters in more detail.
