How to Use the Mashvisor MCP in CrewAI
Deploy specialized real estate agent teams with Mashvisor and CrewAI.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Mashvisor MCP to CrewAI
Create your Vinkius account to connect Mashvisor to CrewAI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Run CrewAI Market Research Teams
The `list_neighborhoods` tool feeds raw investment data directly to your designated research agent. In a CrewAI setup, this first agent scans the market and identifies high-yield zip codes. It then passes those target areas through shared memory to an analysis agent for deeper inspection. You configure this by passing the Vinkius URL into the `mcps` array of your agent definition. The framework handles the HTTP transport natively. Your multi-agent crew operates autonomously without you writing custom API wrappers for the Mashvisor MCP server.
Delegate Property Analysis
The `search_properties` tool allows your sourcing agent to find active listings based on specific investment metrics. Once the sourcing agent compiles a list, a separate financial agent takes over. This second agent runs `get_investment_analysis` on every property to calculate ROI and cap rates. You restrict which agent accesses which endpoint using `tool_filter` in the `MCPServerHTTP` class. Your sourcing agent only sees search tools, while your financial agent only accesses the math endpoints. This role-based specialization prevents agents from hallucinating outside their specific jobs.
Evaluate Competing Rental Strategies
The `get_rental_rates` tool gives your traditional rental analyst the rent distribution statistics it needs. Simultaneously, your short-term rental analyst hits `get_historical_performance` to check Airbnb seasonality. A third moderator agent reviews both reports and decides which strategy yields better returns. The entire debate happens within the CrewAI execution loop. The MCP Server provides the raw market facts, and your hierarchical crew argues the merits of each property based on hard data.
