Estaite MCP Server

License: MIT MCP Free Tier smithery badge MCP Badge

Add current US rental market intelligence to any AI agent in under 60 seconds. 1,500+ submarkets, monthly-refreshed rent / vacancy / affordability / trends, 1,000 free calls per month. No credit card required.

What you can build

  • Rental market research agents — Ask Claude "compare rents in Austin vs Nashville for a 2-bedroom" and get current, cited data without any data pipeline of your own.
  • Investment underwriting bots — Let your AI evaluate cap rates, rent growth, and vacancy trends across hundreds of submarkets in a single conversation.
  • PropTech AI features — Drop into your existing app — tenant portals, brokerage tools, CRM enrichment — and your agent suddenly knows real estate.

Example interaction

You: What's the rental market like in Austin right now?

Claude finds the right submarket via search_estaite_submarkets, then calls get_estaite_market_snapshot.

Claude: Austin is currently a renter's market. Vacancy is running above the balanced threshold, median 2BR rent is down year-over-year, and properties are sitting on market longer than the national average. New construction outpaced demand over the past 12 months. Source: estaite.com.

Every response includes structured data plus a citation back to the source. No hallucinated rent numbers.
