UK Property Data
Environment configuration for API keys including EPC Register credentials, Companies House API key, Rightmove rate limiting, and OpenAI API key for planning portal scraping.
Provides HTTP API wrapper for property data services with endpoints for comparable sales, rental analysis, Rightmove searches, stamp duty calculations, and property reports.
Deployment platform for hosting the property data service with API endpoints and MCP server accessible via HTTP transport.
Source code repository hosting the property-shared project with MCP server implementation and deployment configuration.
Uses OpenAI's vision API for automated planning portal scraping to extract planning application data from UK local council websites.
Testing framework used for both mocked unit tests and live integration tests with real network calls to property data sources.
Core library implementation providing business logic for property data analysis including Land Registry PPD, EPC certificates, Rightmove listings, and yield calculations.
CLI interface for property data tools enabling command-line access to comparable sales, rental yield analysis, stamp duty calculations, and Rightmove searches.
Property Shared
UK property data in one package. Pulls Land Registry sales, EPC certificates, Rightmove listings, rental yields, stamp duty calculations, planning portal links, and Companies House records.
Use it as a Python library, CLI, HTTP API, or MCP server for AI agents.
What You Get
Data Source | What It Returns |
Land Registry PPD | Sold prices, dates, property types, area comps with median/percentiles |
EPC Register | Energy ratings, floor area, construction age, heating costs |
Rightmove | Current listings (sale + rent), prices, agents, listing details |
Yield Analysis | Gross yield from PPD sales + Rightmove rentals combined |
Stamp Duty | SDLT calculation with April 2025 bands, BTL surcharge, FTB relief |
Block Analyzer | Groups flat sales by building to spot investor exits |
Planning | Local council planning portal lookup (99 verified councils) |
Companies House | Company search and lookup by name or number |

# Comparable sales
property-cli ppd comps "SW1A 1AA" --months 24 --property-type F
# Rental yield
property-cli analysis yield "NG1 1AA" --property-type F
# Stamp duty
property-cli calc stamp-duty 300000
# Rightmove search (with sort)
property-cli rightmove search-url "NG1 1AA" --sort-by most_reduced
# Full property report
property-cli report generate "10 Downing Street, SW1A 2AA" --property-type FAdd --api-url http://localhost:8000 to any command to route through the HTTP API instead of calling core directly.
Use as MCP Server (AI Agents)
For Claude.ai, Claude Code, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible host.
pip install property-shared[mcp] # or: uv add property-shared --extra mcp
property-mcp # starts stdio transport12 tools available: property_report, property_comps, ppd_transactions, property_yield, rental_analysis, property_epc, rightmove_search, rightmove_listing, property_blocks, stamp_duty, planning_search, company_search.
Remote server deployed at https://property-shared.fly.dev/mcp (Streamable HTTP).
See mcp_server/README.md for connection setup and tool details.
Use as HTTP API

Development
# Install with dev extras

Three-layer separation — core stays framework-agnostic:
property_core/ Pure Python library (all business logic)
app/ FastAPI wrapper (thin HTTP layer)
property_cli/ Typer CLI (thin CLI layer)
mcp_server/ FastMCP wrapper (thin MCP layer for AI hosts)All three consumers import directly from property_core. No adapter layers.
