Real estate search, Zestimates, and market trends via the Bridge Interactive API.
Data last scanned last week · Reviewed last month
Overview
This server integrates real estate data into AI agents by connecting to the Zillow Bridge API. It provides a suite of tools for searching properties by location, price, and features, while also retrieving specific property details and proprietary Zestimates. Beyond property listings, the server includes analytical features such as a mortgage calculator and market trend reporting. It supports both standard stdio operation for local environments like Claude Desktop and an HTTP server mode for remote deployments.
Our verdict
With a high security risk score of 18/100, this server requires caution. The project has seen no commits in over 448 days and relies on a single contributor, suggesting a potential lack of active maintenance. Due to the unverified nature of its OAuth and read-only mode implementations, it is best suited for experimental environments rather than sensitive workflows.
- MIT license allows flexible usage
- Minimal supply-chain surface with only one direct dependency
- Includes detailed documentation for local and Docker-based setups
- Last code commit occurred over 448 days ago
- Maintained by an individual contributor with no official vendor support
- Security implementation for OAuth and read-only mode remains unreviewed
