Homesnap Data Parser & API
Homesnap is a US MLS-fed resale portal and agent app — owned by CoStar Group — and PropAPIS extracts its listings, prices, agent details, and geo through a single REST API. Access MLS-sourced for-sale listings with full residential attributes without building or maintaining a scraper.
Homesnap is owned by CoStar Group, so PropAPIS’s CoStar-cluster coverage means one integration spans several CoStar portals — Homesnap, Apartments.com, LoopNet, and Homes.com — under a single corporate data stack.
