Details
From the project READMESimplyRETS MCP by usefulapi
Use SimplyRETS from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — search MLS listings and open houses from your SimplyRETS feed, read single listings, agents and offices (agents and offices need the respective SimplyRETS API add-ons), plus listing and market analytics (all read-only). Hosted, no local install: connect with your SimplyRETS API key and secret.
Live endpoint: https://simplyrets.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/simplyrets
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://simplyrets.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http simplyrets https://simplyrets.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run/mcpto log in. - VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"simplyrets": {
"url": "https://simplyrets.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your SimplyRETS credentials.
