Analyze Regional Market Trends
Need to understand neighborhood growth? The `get_region_chart` tool generates a URL image showing historical Zestimate data for entire regions. It's perfect for big-picture reports. You can drill down further using `get_region_children`, which returns a list of neighborhoods within any specified city or region, giving your agent granular scope.
Compare Property Value Sets
The MCP Server lets you gather deep comparable sales data. Use `get_comps` to get a straightforward list of recent local sales for comparison. For even deeper analysis, the agent can invoke `get_deep_comps`, which returns rich property details for both the main subject and all comparables involved in the listing.
Check Current Mortgage Rates & Payments
Buyers need to know what they're getting into. The agent uses `get_rate_summary` to fetch current mortgage rates instantly. You can then use `get_monthly_payments` to calculate the estimated payment based on those rates. This whole process works with your AI client, giving you a complete financial picture right alongside the property data.
