I am thinking of pivoting from a SaaS application to APIs, so that RE professionals and investors can access that better and more current market data than what CoStar, the MLS, and others provide. More info on SaaS application and data we deliver is at bit.ly/2PWRMXB
But before I build the APIs, I need some information.
Who has the market share for market data for API’s? And what is their pricing matrix? What features and data are most in demand?
Any idea where I might find some better information and facts? Then once built, looking for smart way to get this new market data to the masses.

@Eddie Godshalk I’m building a county data API currently. I do know ATTOM has a pretty stable and extensive system but mine will scrape new data on demand instead of storing information in an updated database.

OK, it is my experience that no monthly or quarterly market data is on the market, so not scrapable. We are replacing they system that big retailers build in-house. Like how does Starbuck determine where to open 50 stores next week. IMHO compiling free stuff, adds little value, ....just an opinion.... Do you have more details on ATTOM pricing. THey and CoStar etc....do not publish the pricing.. Suggestions?
