## Description
Free remote MCP for London property: listings and video tours, sold prices, area profiles and trends, commute times, stamp duty and buying costs, rental yield. No sign-in needed. URL: https://www.holofy.io/mcp

## Tools
Capabilities this server exposes over MCP:

- **search_listings** — Search homes to rent or buy in London and the UK by area or postcode. Returns Holofy listings with agency video tours first, then live listings from the main property portal(s) for that country (Rightmove in the UK; in London also OnTheMarket, Foxtons, OpenRent, Purplebricks, Portico, Dexters, Hunters, Ellis & Co, Martin & Co, Belvoir, Benham & Reeves, Gumtree and, for rooms, SpareRoom and Ideal Flatmate, with duplicates merged (linking the agency site when found) and full details for the top results), with price, beds, address, map point and an Open link. Prices are monthly for rentals. Leave location empty to list Holofy video tours.
- **get_listing** — Details of one listing by the id from search_listings (e.g. "holofy:5f1c..." or "rightmove:1234"). Holofy listings include the video tour. Also returns live area context around the listing (crime, transport, schools, amenities, flood risk, sold prices, air quality); for listings with a hidden address this uses the postcode district centre only.
- **get_area_profile** — Live data about any place, fetched now from official and open sources: asking rents by bedroom count (section rent: median and middle half per bedroom count, sample size and example listings from the portals, live asking rents, not achieved rents; only when asked for), crime (data.police.uk), sold prices (HM Land Registry) and the local house price index, transport (TfL in London with live line status; DfT NaPTAN stations elsewhere in Great Britain), schools (London: DfE school register with official Ofsted outcomes), amenities (OpenStreetMap London extract), air quality (DEFRA, London Air), flood risk (Environment Agency), planning designations and applications (planning.data.gov.uk; GLA Datahub in London), census 2021 people profile (age, households, qualifications, work, country of birth, ethnic group, density) and deprivation (ONS, MHCLG), safety (6-month crime trend, crime outcomes, stop and search, road casualties and fire incidents in London), council tax by band (official 2026-27 levels), energy certificates (EPC register) and broadband availability (Ofcom). Deepest in England; elsewhere each section states what is not covered. Every section carries its source, date, coverage and licence. Listings to rent or buy come from search_listings, not from this tool.
- **get_sold_prices** — Recent registered sales near a place in England or Wales from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data: date, price, address, property type, tenure and new-build flag, with medians by type. Land Registry has no bedroom count: to answer "what did 2-bed flats sell for", filter by property_type flat and say that bedrooms are not recorded.
- **get_area_trends** — Signals for "is this area up and coming", each a published series with its own source and date: house price growth over 1, 5 and 10 years (UK HPI, local authority), sold-price medians per year near the point (Land Registry), population change (ONS mid-year estimates, local authority and ward), resident earnings over 5 and 10 years (ONS ASHE), deprivation rank 2019 vs 2025 (English IoD), and planning applications per year (London). No combined score: interpret the signals together and say which are missing. UK only.
- **get_commute** — Door-to-door public transport time from a home or place in London to a destination, from TfL Journey Planner: total minutes, each leg (walk, bus, tube, rail) with its line, changes, two alternatives, live status of the lines used, and the route for the map. Default timing is the next weekday leaving at 08:30. London starts only; elsewhere it says it is not covered.
- **get_map_layers** — Used by the Holofy map view to draw extra layers (tube and rail lines, flood zones, conservation areas) around a point. Prefer get_area_profile with map_layers.
- **compare_areas** — Compare 2 to 4 places side by side with live data: crime, sold prices, local house price index, transport, air quality, amenities and census. Any UK postcode, district or neighbourhood; places outside the UK get the sections that cover them.
- **get_buying_costs** — Purchase tax for a home price: Stamp Duty Land Tax (England and Northern Ireland), LBTT (Scotland) or LTT (Wales), with the band breakdown, first-time buyer relief, the additional-property surcharge and the non-resident surcharge. Also a rule-of-thumb guide: deposits at 5% to 40%, the household income a typical 4 to 4.5x income multiple implies, and government schemes open today (Lifetime ISA, shared ownership, Mortgage Guarantee Scheme). Guidance, not advice; no lender data.
- **get_rental_yield** — Gross rental yield ESTIMATE for a place in England or Wales: median asking rent from current Rightmove listings against the median HM Land Registry sold price nearby over 12 months, and (with bedrooms) against asking prices for the same bedroom count. Returns sample sizes, rents by bedroom count and caveats. Asking rents are not achieved rents; this is an estimate, not advice.

## Documentation

## What Holofy: London Property MCP does

Holofy: London Property MCP gives MCP-compatible AI clients access to London property information. Its scope covers both individual listings and broader market research, allowing an agent to work with listing details, video tours, historical sold prices, area characteristics, market trends, commute times, stamp duty, other buying costs, and rental yield.

The server is intended for property discovery and comparison. It can support questions such as comparing London areas, reviewing available listings, checking what properties have sold for, estimating transaction costs, examining commuting considerations, and assessing rental yield.

## How it works

The service is available remotely at `https://www.holofy.io/mcp`. An MCP client connects to that endpoint and makes the server's property research capabilities available to an AI agent. No sign-in is required, so setup does not depend on creating or supplying a Holofy account.

Because the service is remote, the client needs access to the endpoint when it uses the property tools. The endpoint is the central connection detail for integrating Holofy with an MCP-compatible application.

## Setup and configuration

Configure an MCP client to use the remote endpoint:

```text
https://www.holofy.io/mcp
```

No environment variables or authentication credentials are required for the stated no-sign-in setup. The exact configuration format depends on the MCP client being used, but the connection target is the URL above.

## Tools and capabilities

Holofy covers several parts of London property research:

- Find or review property listings.
- Access listing video tours.
- Check sold prices.
- Examine area profiles.
- Review area trends.
- Consider commute times.
- Account for stamp duty and other buying costs.
- Assess rental yield.

These capabilities combine property-level information with area and financial context. For example, an agent can use listing details alongside sold prices, commute times, and purchase costs when comparing options, or use rental yield and area trends when reviewing an investment-oriented question.

## Limitations and notes

Holofy is specifically described as a London property service, so its stated coverage is narrower than a general property or worldwide real-estate data source. The service is remote and depends on access to its MCP endpoint. No sign-in is needed, but clients still need to support remote MCP connections and be able to reach the URL.

The available information is centered on the categories listed above: listings and tours, sold prices, area research, commuting, buying costs, and rental yield. Use those areas when deciding whether the server matches a particular property workflow.
