{"activeVersionTag":"latest","latestAvailableVersionTag":"latest","collection":{"info":{"_postman_id":"37fb8ecc-8fb8-43d5-bfd2-673bc9f17106","name":"Rent.com API","description":"The Rent.com API returns US rental listings from Rent.com as JSON: apartments, houses, condos and townhomes for rent, with rent at each bedroom count, floor plans and unit availability, fees, move-in deals, price drops, market rent estimates and walk scores. Rent.com has no public developer API. This collection holds every endpoint of the Rent.com API on RapidAPI, ready to send from Postman.\n\nBuilt and maintained by [Happy Endpoint](https://happyendpoint.com/library/rent-com-api?utm_source=postman&utm_medium=collection&utm_campaign=rent-com-api).\n\n## Get started\n\n1. Subscribe to the [Rent.com API on RapidAPI](https://rapidapi.com/happyendpoint/api/rent-com1) and copy your key. Current plans are listed there.\n2. Fork this collection into your own workspace. Open the collection's **Variables** tab and paste your key into the **Current value** of `rapidapi_key`. Leave the Initial value empty: current values stay on your machine and are never shared.\n3. Send **Locations > Location lookup (location_slug)** with a city such as `austin`. Every search takes the `location_slug` it returns (for example `texas/austin`).\n4. Send **Search > Search rentals in a location** with that slug, and add filters such as `beds=2` and `max_price=2000`.\n\nRequests with a saved **Example response** show real response data before you subscribe.\n\n## What you can do\n\n- **Search rentals** in any state, city, neighborhood, ZIP code, county or college area with 17 filters: beds, baths, property type, pet policy, amenities, rent and size range, move-in date, keyword, deals and recently updated. Pages hold up to 500 listings, with seven sort orders including nearest first.\n- **Search other ways:** around a map point, inside a drawn polygon, nationwide by filters alone, by community name, or by pasting a Rent.com search URL.\n- **Get a full listing:** floor plans with every unit's rent, size, deposit and availability date, fees, estimated move-in costs, pet policies, parking, amenities, photos and nearby schools.\n- **Track listings:** refresh up to 50 saved listings in one call and see which came off the market.\n- **Price a rental:** market rent (min, mean, median, max) for any US point and bedroom count, with the nearest comparables.\n- **Read the neighborhood:** walk, transit and bike scores, nearby places and relative utility usage by ZIP code.\n\nAll 19 requests are `GET`. Every response is wrapped in `{\"success\": true, \"data\": {...}}`.\n\n## Things to know about the data\n\n- **The headline `price` is the cheapest floor plan,** not the rent for the beds you asked for. A `beds=2` search matches a community when any floor plan has two bedrooms. Read the two-bed rent from `price_by_beds` or `filter_match`.\n- **Student housing is priced per bed.** Communities named \"Student Housing - Rent by the Bed\" quote rent for one bed in a shared unit, not the apartment.\n- **`price_text` ends in `+` when the rent is a starting price.** `\"$695+\"` is a range, `\"$2,100\"` is one unit.\n- **Communities and single units are both listings.** Community ids look like `lc6705165`; a single condo unit looks like `lv3258870131` and carries a `building_id` for `/building-details`.\n- **Rent estimates exclude apartment listings** and can be skewed by one expensive comparable. Use the median.\n- **Deep paging has a ceiling:** `page` times `page_size` may not exceed 100,000. Split a large market by filters or smaller areas.\n- **`updated_within_days` starts at 2.** A value of `1` is a 400.\n- **Filters combine differently.** Several `beds` or `property_types` values are OR; several `amenities` are AND.\n\n## Use it from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client\n\nRapidAPI exposes every endpoint of this API as an MCP tool. Point your MCP client at `https://mcp.rapidapi.com` with the headers `x-api-host: rent-com1.p.rapidapi.com` and `x-api-key: <your RapidAPI key>`.\n\n## Links\n\n- Product page and FAQ: [happyendpoint.com/library/rent-com-api](https://happyendpoint.com/library/rent-com-api?utm_source=postman&utm_medium=collection&utm_campaign=rent-com-api)\n- Subscribe and plans: [rapidapi.com/happyendpoint/api/rent-com1](https://rapidapi.com/happyendpoint/api/rent-com1)\n- Python and JavaScript examples: [github.com/happyendpointhq/rent-com-api](https://github.com/happyendpointhq/rent-com-api)\n- Also in Postman: [Redfin API](https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/56555678/2sBYHVwKWh) for US homes for sale, sold homes and the Redfin Estimate.\n- Need a recurring rent export instead of API calls?
