#Location inputs

StreetEasy covers New York City and a few New Jersey towns. Area searches take zip, bbox, lat with lng and radius_mi, a borough as county with state, or city with state. They do not take neighborhood. A city or county must be in New York (state=NY); any other state returns 422 right away. For the New Jersey towns, use their ZIP or a map box.

• county takes the five boroughs by county or borough name: New York or Manhattan, Kings or Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, Richmond or Staten Island, with state=NY.
• city takes New York (all five boroughs) or one borough name, with state=NY.
• A ZIP code, map box or radius where StreetEasy has never listed a home returns location_not_served, never homes from somewhere else.

Home lookups take address, url or source_id.

• The source_id names a listing and says whether it is a sale or a rental: sale-1849109, rental-5182829. Sales and rentals are numbered separately on StreetEasy.
• url takes a unit page (https://streeteasy.com/building/704-washington-street-new_york/gb), which returns the unit's newest sale listing, else its newest rental listing. A house's listing page (/building/<building>/sale/<id>) and /sale/<id> or /rental/<id> pages work too.
• An address is found through its US Census map point and StreetEasy's listings nearby. Send the unit (150 Charles St #M10, New York, NY 10014): without one, an address with several units returns address_ambiguous with up to 5 of them.

#Things to know

• Search rows show the last asking price. StreetEasy's sale price is the recorded closing (the deed filed with the city), which comes back as sale_price with sale_price_disclosure: public_record.
• Some homes are marked sold before StreetEasy has their recorded closing (17 of 89 sales in ZIP 10014 over 90 days). Those come back with sold_date and sale_price null. We never put the asking price in their place; it is in list_price.
• sold_within_days counts from the day StreetEasy marked the home sold (extras.off_market_date), usually on or a few days after the closing. Sold results always come newest first, so sold doesn't take sort. min_price and max_price on sold filter on the asking price.
• StreetEasy's sold order follows its own last-change date, which now and then sits before the day a home was marked sold. Such a home can show up a page late, or be missed at the end of the window (1 of 156 sales in ZIP 11375 over 90 days).
• reported_total is null on sold: StreetEasy counts every sale it ever listed in the area, not the window.
• StreetEasy shows at most 1,000 results per search. Past that, completeness is partial. Narrow the area or add filters to see the rest.
• Co-ops have monthly maintenance, which includes property taxes, instead of HOA dues. Condo common charges are in hoa_fee_monthly on property and in extras.monthly_common_charges. Co-ops, condos and condops are all property_type: condo; extras.property_type_raw tells them apart.
• StreetEasy can filter condos and co-ops, houses, and rental buildings, but not townhouses or two- to four-family homes. For those, a page keeps only the types you asked for, so it can have fewer rows, and reported_total is null. land and manufactured return filter_not_supported.
• Rentals don't take year_built_min or year_built_max.
• StreetEasy shows the listing brokerage, not the agent, signed out. agent_name is null.
• property returns the listing you name with its unit's full listing and sale history. When the unit has a newer listing, its source_id is in extras.newer_source_id.
• estimate returns StreetEasy's own sale value with its range, and its rent estimate, labeled source: streeteasy. We don't make our own.
• comps ranks recent sales with a recorded closing near a home, the same way as Zillow's comps.
