Compare / Mashvisor API
Mashvisor's data API is built for investors: long-term and short-term rental income, occupancy, cap rate, owner and tax history, derived from the MLS, Zillow, Rentometer, Airbnb and the Census Bureau, updated daily, from $129 a month for 500 calls. HousingFeed does not compete on analytics. It supplies the rental listings themselves, collected from property managers' own sites and licensed for display in your product, plus a Data API for research.

| Licenses listings for public display? | Yes, via the Display Feed (manager-direct listings; portal listings excluded) | Restricted: commercial use of analytics is allowed on paid plans; MLS-derived data is limited to identifying prospective properties, and redistribution requires an Enterprise agreement (terms checked 2026-09-20) |
You need the rental listings themselves, in bulk for a geography, licensed to show to your users, with the manager's page as the source.
You are an investor tool that needs income, occupancy and cap-rate estimates per property, short-term rental performance, or owner and tax history, and per-call pricing suits your volume.
