Building a property intelligence layer is the hard part

Every proptech founder, AI builder, and platform developer hits the same wall. The product idea is clear. The tech stack is ready. Then you need property data.

Government sources are fragmented across states. Valuations need hedonic models calibrated against millions of sales. Demographics need ABS ingestion pipelines. Risk data sits in flood maps, bushfire overlays, and heritage registers that each use different formats. CMA requires matching on 30+ property features and adjusting for time.

Building this from scratch takes years and a dedicated data team. Or you call one API.

What Luke tells API customers:

"The upside is that you don't need to build a property database. You don't need to scrape a lot of sources, and you don't even need to do a property search. Massive saving of dev time. Rather than having to become a database expert and a data cleaning expert and a real estate expert, you just call our API, and off you go."

Who uses the API

AI and agentic platforms

Feed structured property and demographic data directly into LLMs and autonomous workflows. Decider, an agentic operating system, uses the API to power AI agents that profile businesses and automate decisions using property context. No transformation needed. The JSON response slots straight into your prompt.

Property platforms and portals

Launch a data-rich property site without building your own intelligence layer. Envelope, a peer-to-peer property platform, uses the API to generate comprehensive property profiles for every address. One integration replaces what would otherwise need 5-10 different data vendors.

Mortgage and fintech products

AVM valuations and CMA data support automated lending decisions. Faster and cheaper than manual valuations at scale. Daily updates mean your risk models reflect the market as it is, not as it was last month.

Buyer's agent tools

White-label property and suburb reports under your own brand. Generate client-facing analysis in seconds instead of hours. Buyer's agents use our data to explain valuations to clients when other providers' numbers don't match reality.

Proptech startups

Ship a data-rich product in weeks instead of months. The API covers valuations, risk, demographics, schools, amenities, CMA, and growth forecasts. Your engineering team builds features, not data pipelines.

What the API covers

If you can see it on microburbs.com.au, it is available through the API. The site and the API run on the same data layer.

20+endpoints

Property Data

AVM valuations, sales history, rental yields, risk factors, demographics, amenities, schools, zoning, development applications, easements, neighbours, AI summaries, CMA comparables with 30+ feature matching, and more.

20+endpoints

Suburb and Street Data

Market trends (monthly data back to 2003), growth forecasts, demographics, school catchments, similar suburbs, pocket/micro-suburb analytics, street-level medians and turnover, risk overlays, zoning, and more.

10+endpoints

Search and Discovery

Property search, suburb finder with 40+ filter criteria, street-level search, pocket-level search, and geographic filtering by SA1 through SA4.

Why not build it yourself?

With AI tools, everyone thinks they can build their own Microburbs. Many try. Here is what they find.

Accurate valuations

Hedonic models need millions of calibrated sales, adjusted for time, location, and 30+ property features. A naive median is dangerously wrong.

Comparative Market Analysis

Matching properties on bedrooms and bathrooms is not enough. Real CMA requires 30+ features, verified distances, risk overlays, and time-adjusted sale prices. We update CMA data daily.

Growth forecasts

Our forecasts are backtested over 15 years with 85% accuracy. Building a comparable model means assembling the historical dataset first.

Risk overlays

Flood, fire, heritage, erosion, public housing, noise, and easement data sits in different state government systems, each with different formats and update cycles.

Keeping it current

We update property data and CMA daily, suburb metrics weekly. Monthly data can cost a buyer $60,000 on a $700,000 property in a fast-moving market.

What customers say

From API customers who switched from other data providers or evaluated building their own.

"You're basically going to save me 1,000s of hours in trying to put stuff together. And I don't have those 1,000s of hours."

Wes Thornton Property platform founder

"The first one was you were actually transparent and clear about the data you've got. Going through the other providers, it was not the greatest experience. Just trying to get any information is very gatekeeper. Gatekeeped."

Nicholas Jones Platform builder

"I've always hated the way the big providers have data which is so smoothed out that it's actually wrong."

Nicholas Jones Platform builder

"By the time other tools show an area, prices have gone up $50-100K from what they advertised."

David Buyer's agent

"Other providers would say the property is worth 550 based on comparables in the area when we know it's worth much more than that. Leaning on Microburbs is where we can bridge the gap."

Emmanuel Michael Buyer's agent, InvestorMate

How the API is designed to be used

User-driven requests only. The API is designed for real-time use: a user in your app requests data, your app calls the API, you display the result. It is not designed for bulk database building, background scraping, or pre-populating your own data store.

Behind a login. Data returned by the API must be displayed to authenticated users within your application. It cannot appear on public pages that are visible to search engines.

No caching or redistribution. Call the API each time a user requests data. Do not cache, store, or resell the responses.

Simple pricing

All prices in AUD, excluding GST. No setup fees. No per-call charges. Unlimited API calls on every plan.
