Zillow

zillow-mcp

Zillow real-estate access as an MCP server for Claude — search listings, fetch property details, Zestimate history, your saved searches & homes, and market reports via natural language.

⚠️ Zillow does not publish a public consumer API. The official Bridge API is gated to MLS partners. This server uses the same private endpoints the zillow.com web app uses, routed through your own signed-in browser tab via the fetchproxy extension. Every request acts on behalf of your existing session — your cookies, your TLS, your JS context — exactly as if you'd clicked it in the browser yourself. Treat this as informal use of Zillow's website. Use at your own discretion.

Why this exists

The four existing Zillow MCPs all sit on one of two foundations:

• The Bridge API — requires MLS membership, IDX vendor relationship, or "approved technology partnership" (10+ business-day approval). Consumers can't get in.
• A paid scraper (RapidAPI, Apify) — adds a third party to the trust path and rate-limits.

None of them can see what you have saved, favorited, or recently viewed — because both Bridge and third-party scrapers are out-of-session. zillow-mcp uses your already-signed-in zillow.com tab.
