How to Use the Mashvisor MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I set up the Mashvisor MCP server in Cursor?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project's root directory. Add the Mashvisor server's URL from Vinkius to the mcpServers configuration, then restart Cursor to load the tools.

Write real estate analysis scripts in Cursor. Your agent calls Mashvisor to inject live property data and ROI metrics directly into your code.

Build Scripts with Live Property Data

Stop working with stale CSVs or mock data. Tell your Cursor agent to 'find properties in Miami and write a Python script to print their cap rates.' It uses the `search_properties` tool to get live listings and writes the actual, working code for you. This changes how you build. Your first draft of a script runs against real-world data from the start. The agent doesn't just write code; it writes code that's already connected to the Mashvisor API.

Generate Typed Interfaces from API Calls

The `get_property` tool fetches a complete data object for any listing. You can highlight a property ID in your editor and have the agent not only fetch the data but also generate a TypeScript interface or Python dataclass that matches the response. Forget digging through API docs to figure out the data structure. The same goes for `get_airbnb_property`. Your agent calls the tool, inspects the live response, and builds the types for you, so you can get back to coding with full autocomplete.

Code Your Own Investment Analysis

The `get_investment_analysis` tool gives you the raw numbers for any property. You can ask your agent to wrap this in a helper function, like `calculate_roi(property_id)` that returns a formatted string with cash-on-cash return and other key metrics. This lets you build your own analysis tools right inside your project. Your agent calls the Mashvisor MCP server, gets the numbers, and integrates them into the functions you need, using the logic you define.

Setup guide

Set up Mashvisor MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Mashvisor MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Mashvisor transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Mashvisor tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mashvisor-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Common questions about Mashvisor MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project's root directory. Add the Mashvisor server's URL from Vinkius to the `mcpServers` configuration, then restart Cursor to load the tools.

Yes, that's its main purpose. Ask it to perform a task, like 'fetch the top 5 Airbnb listings in San Diego and create a list of their nightly rates.' The agent will use the `get_airbnb_listings` tool and generate the code to do it.

Tell the agent to get both sets of data for a property. It will use `get_rental_rates` for traditional and `get_investment_analysis` (with an Airbnb flag) to pull the numbers and can then generate code to compare them.

The data is as current as Mashvisor's database. Every time your agent calls a tool like `search_properties`, it's making a live API request, not using a cached or outdated data set.

It only sees the specific property IDs or search filters your agent sends with each tool call. The Vinkius-hosted server is sandboxed and has no access to your local files, codebase, or any other project data.
