redfin
A Python wrapper around the unofficial Redfin API.
Installation
pip install redfin
Usage
from redfin import Redfin
client = Redfin()
response = client.search('1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA')
url = response['payload']['exactMatch']['url']
initial_info = client.initial_info(url)
property_id = initial_info['payload']['propertyId']
# Get estimated value
avm = client.avm_details(property_id, "")
predicted_value = avm['payload']['predictedValue']
print(f"Estimated value: {predicted_value}")
# Get neighborhood walk/bike/transit scores
stats = client.neighborhood_stats(property_id)
walk_score = stats['payload']['walkScoreInfo']['walkScoreData']['walkScore']['value']
print(f"Walk score: {walk_score}")
Configuration
Custom User-Agent
client = Redfin(user_agent="MyApp/1.0 (contact@example.com)")
Rate Limiting
Add a delay between requests to avoid hitting Redfin's rate limits:
client = Redfin(request_delay=1.0) # 1 second between requests
The client also automatically handles 429 responses by sleeping the Retry-After header duration and retrying once.
CLI
redfin estimate <property_id> # print estimate, beds/baths, last sold price
redfin neighborhood <property_id> # print walk/bike/transit scores
Options:
redfin --user-agent "MyApp/1.0" estimate 12345 # custom User-Agent
redfin --delay 1.5 neighborhood 12345 # delay between requests
redfin estimate --json 12345 # raw JSON output
