ATTOM Data Solutions has launched a streamlined application program interface (API) that consolidates its property-centric tax, deed, mortgage and foreclosure data with enhanced neighborhood-centric schools, crime, and other community and neighborhood data, the company announced.
“We’ve combined all the premium property data ATTOM has been collecting and curating for decades with the best-in-class neighborhood and boundary data we recently acquired to create a one-stop shop for accessing real estate data via API,” ATTOM CEO Rob Barber said in a release.
The neighborhood-centric data also includes points of interest such as restaurants, banks and shopping; demographic information such as population and education statistics; weather data and averages; and commute times.
“Combining different but complementary real estate datasets into a single API platform allowed us to include some out-of-the-box real estate search options,” ATTOM Chief Technology Officer Todd Teta said. “This new API supports the ability to search by point and radius, or by different boundary levels such as subdivision or neighborhood.”
ATTOM said its new, consolidated APIs will be accessible through a self-service developer platform that features a 30-day trial for users to test against ATTOM’s production data — up to 500 calls per day. The developer platform also includes public-facing how-to guides and sample code to streamline integration.
“Developers accessing the new ATTOM API won’t have to talk to a sales rep or wait a week for a test agreement to start accessing production data,” ATTOM Chief Operating Officer Richard Lombardi said. “We provide a simple click-through agreement along with comprehensive integration documentation, so you can get started today.”
