Once the MCP server is connected, you can ask Claude things like:
"Search for the property at 30 Hudson Yards, New York, NY"
"Get the sales history for property key ABC123..."
"Find sales comps within 5 miles of downtown Chicago for office buildings sold in the last 2 years"
"What are the market trends for the New York office sector quarterly?"
"List all submarkets in the Boston metro area for the apartment sector"
"Get the Commercial Location Score for this property"
"Show me CMBS loan data for this property"
"What are the tax assessments for this parcel?"
The server authenticates via Basic Auth (email + API key) to get a JWT bearer token, which is cached and auto-refreshed. If you see 401 errors on data endpoints, your API key may need the CRE product subscription enabled in the Moody's API Hub portal. The auth token endpoint will work, but data endpoints require active CRE entitlements on the API key.
