Share Green Street MCP Server tools across your team
Standardizing your team's real estate underwriting gets easier with `get_company_summary` and `get_earnings_metrics` providing live financials in your workspace. Your VS Code Copilot agent can pull live REIT FFO and FAD metrics during shared code reviews. Building internal real estate tools is simpler. Your team can run `get_portfolio_breakout` and `get_nav_estimates` to check data structures and verify API responses as a collective unit.
Pull market grades into your shared codebase
The `get_market_grades` and `get_market_sector_summary` tools pull institutional submarket rankings directly into your team's workspace. VS Code Copilot uses this data to help you write accurate data-parsing algorithms. Modeling future rent growth is fast. Your agent calls `get_market_projections` to fetch NOI trends, letting you build production-ready forecasting scripts without leaving your IDE.
Access transaction history inside Copilot Chat
Accessing comps becomes part of your git workflow when `get_historical_transactions` queries past property sales directly from the chat interface. VS Code Copilot reads these transaction summaries to help you map database schemas to actual market transactions. Keeping your codebase updated with macro shifts is simple. Using `get_news_articles` and `get_forecast_scenarios` allows your team to track industry news and forecast models right next to your source code.
