Changelog

New Feature

Google Reviews

• The review_analysis field on the PropertyDetailsResponse object is now factoring in Google Reviews.

New Feature

Market Search

• Added allow_null to the year_built, number_units and number_stories filters in the /market/search endpoint.
• Added is_student, is_senior, is_affordable as three additional filters to the /market/search endpoint

New Feature

Lease Up

Added is_lease_up to the property responses. This indicates that the building was recently built, and it is assumed that the developers are only showing a small number of their available units because they are still trying to fill their spaces. See is_lease_up on the Property Response for more information on how a building meets this condition.

Deprecations

• Deprecated tier parameter from the /property/comparables endpoint. Use renovations instead. This offers more flexibility by allowing you to specify a renovation score between 0 and 1 to boost the quality score of the subject property.

New Feature

New Comparables Filters

• Added filters to the /property/comparables endpoint to allow you to filter by is_affordable, is_senior, and is_student. You can set them to true, false or undefined to include, exclude or be indifferent to properties that match these criteria.

New Feature

Price Plans

• Launched history.price_plans, which includes a historical list of all price plans and effective rents.
• Launched history.lease_term and unit.lease_term, which shows you the lease term used for the records prices.

Deprecation

• Deprecated availability_periods.price_plans in favor of this new price_plan improvement.

New Feature

Affordable Tag

We have introduced a new boolean flag, is_affordable, to the PropertyDetailsResponse object. This flag indicates whether the property is a LIHTC property or if public sources indicate that there are income restrictions.

New Feature

Concessions History: Included in Price

• Added special_included to the concessions_history object to indicate if the concession was already included in asking price. For example: “1 month free. Special included in advertisement”
• When special_included is true, the price field is back-calculated from the effective rent to show what the actual asking price would have been before the concession was applied. This provides consistency in price tracking regardless of how properties choose to advertise their specials.

Deprecations

• specials on the PropertyDetailsResponse object
• lease_lengths on the PropertyDetailsResponse object
• estimated_occupancy on the PropertyDetailsResponse object
• renovated, furnished, den, convertible on the UnitDetailsResponse object

New Feature

Property Report Metadata

• Added metadata to the /property_report/list endpoint to allow users to store arbitrary metadata on a report. Accept an object with strings as keys and strings, numbers or booleans as values.
• New PATCH endpoint on /property_report/{id}/metadata to update the metadata of a report.

Deprecations

• Removed previously deprecated specials_history attribute from PropertyDetails. Use concessions_history instead, which has a more accurate history of concessions.

Deprecations

• Removed previously deprecated /rentsource/* endpoints.
