What is the HUD Fair Market Rents MCP Server?
Connect directly to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) API to retrieve critical housing and economic data through natural conversation. This server provides comprehensive access to Fair Market Rents (FMR) and Income Limits (IL) across the United States.
What you can do
- Geographic Discovery — List all states, counties, and metropolitan areas with their corresponding FIPS and CBSA codes.
- Fair Market Rents (FMR) — Fetch detailed rent data for specific counties or metro areas, or retrieve entire statewide datasets for comparative analysis.
- Income Limits (IL) — Access median income data and limits for very low, extremely low, and low-income families by entity ID.
- MTSP Data — Retrieve Multifamily Tax Subsidy Project income limits for specific housing projects.
- Historical Analysis — Query data for specific years to track housing market trends.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your HUD User API Key
- Start querying housing data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?

Frequently asked questions
How do I find the specific ID for a county to get its rent data?
First, use the list_states tool to get the state code, then use list_counties with that code. This will provide you with the 10-digit FIPS code (entity ID) needed for the get_fmr_data tool.
Can I retrieve rent data for an entire state at once?
Yes! Use the get_state_fmr_data tool and provide the two-letter state code (e.g., 'NY' for New York). It will return FMR data for all metro areas and counties within that state.
What is the difference between IL and MTSP data?
IL data (get_il_data) refers to general Income Limits for housing assistance, while MTSP data (get_mtsp_il_data) specifically targets Multifamily Tax Subsidy Projects. Both can be queried using the same entity IDs.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call HUD Fair Market Rents tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
