Redfin MCP Server

A hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude, Cursor, Windsurf and any other MCP client two read-only Redfin tools. Search for-sale, for-rent and sold listings with the filter set Redfin shows a visitor, and read one property page in full, both as structured JSON, with no MLS licence and nothing to host.

It reads public Redfin pages that a signed-out visitor can see.

1,000 free credits every month, no card required, which is 200 Redfin calls at the 5-credit rate.

What you need

An MCP client and a HasData API key from the dashboard, free to create with no card, and the free tier covers about 200 calls a month at the 5-credit rate. This is a remote server, so the simplest path is a URL and an x-api-key header, with no container to run. A client that only speaks stdio reaches it through a thin launcher, published as @hasdata/redfin-mcp on npm and hasdata-redfin-mcp on PyPI, shown below.

Quick start

The server URL is the same for every client. We run it hands-on in Claude Code and Claude Desktop. The other blocks follow each client's own documented format for a remote server.

Clients with OAuth support can add the same URL as a connector and sign in without putting a key in a config file.

  --header "x-api-key: HASDATA_API_KEY"

Example prompts

Each of these lands on one tool, or on two in sequence when the second needs the URL the first returns.

• Find three-bedroom houses for sale in 78741 under $500,000 and sort them by price per square foot.
• What sold in Austin in the last three months, and how does that compare with what is listed now?
• Pull the full property page for this Redfin URL and summarise the condition from the description.
• Which rentals in Austin allow dogs and include in-unit laundry?
• Show me for-sale homes in the Austin Independent School District where the assigned elementary school rates 8 or better.
• Find fixer-uppers built before 1970 in this zipcode that have been on Redfin more than 30 days.

A prompt that names a market goes to the search tool. A prompt that hands you a Redfin URL goes straight to the property tool. Searching for a full street address is a third case, covered below, because it answers with one property rather than a list.

Tools

Two tools, 5 credits per successful call.

Get Redfin real estate listings

hasdata_redfin_listing_getRealEstateListings

A page of listings for a location, or one property when the location is a single address.

Two parameters are required, and the rest of the schema mirrors Redfin's own filter panel.

The filters are named after the nested structure Redfin uses internally, flattened with underscores, so they have to be passed exactly as the schema spells them. price_min_ and price_max_ are the price band, beds_min_ and beds_max_ the bedroom count, monthlyPayment_interestRate_ a mortgage assumption. A doubled underscore marks an array.
