# Propbar MCP Server

[![MCP Registry](https://img.shields.io/badge/MCP-Registry-blue)](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io)
[![UK Property Data](https://img.shields.io/badge/UK-Property%20Data-green)](https://propbar.co.uk)

MCP server providing **UK property research tools** for AI assistants. Enables Claude, GPT, and other LLMs to search properties, analyse area safety, find nearby schools, explore demographics, and **build automated valuation models (AVMs)**.

Powered by [Propbar's](https://propbar.co.uk) comprehensive UK property database covering **30+ million properties**.

## Use Cases

### Build Your Own AVM

The `get_comparables` tool provides access to a **comprehensive property search** with 50+ filterable fields - perfect for building automated valuation models:

- **Transaction Data**: Sale history with dates and amounts, current asking prices
- **Market Status**: For sale, SSTC, under offer, reserved, back on market dates
- **Property Attributes**: Type, beds, baths, floor area, construction age
- **EPC Data**: Energy ratings (A-G), efficiency scores, potential ratings
- **Tenure & Charges**: Freehold/leasehold, lease years remaining, service charges, ground rent
- **Pricing Metrics**: Price per sqm, price per sqft, price changes over time
- **Listing Intelligence**: Days on market, price reductions, portal links

**Example AVM workflow:**
```
1. get_comparables({ latitude, longitude, propertyType: "flat", bedrooms: 2 })
2. Filter by sale date (last 12 months) and distance
3. Adjust for differences (floor area, EPC rating, condition)
4. Calculate £/sqft and apply to subject property
```

### Property Research for Buyers

Help users make informed decisions with comprehensive area data:

- **Crime & Safety** - Is this area safe? How does it compare?
- **Schools** - What schools are nearby? Ofsted ratings?
- **Demographics** - Who lives here? Age, tenure, household types?
- **Market Analysis** - What are similar properties selling for?
