# property.payapi.market

This host serves buy-to-let investors and property screening tools focused on the UK market. It offers a lightweight, programmatic way to get a gross yield estimate for any UK postcode, optionally anchored to a known property value. It is a narrow, single-purpose tool with no broader property data, valuation, or portfolio management capabilities.

## When to use this host

Use this host when an agent needs a quick gross rental yield estimate for a UK postcode to support buy-to-let screening or investment triage. It is appropriate for early-stage filtering where a regional average estimate is sufficient. Do not use it for non-UK properties, for precise or address-level valuations, or where a formal RICS appraisal is required. It does not provide house price trends, comparable sales, rental market depth, or portfolio analytics — for those needs, look to dedicated UK property data providers such as Zoopla, Rightmove, or Land Registry direct APIs.

## Capabilities

*Use when:* Use when an agent needs to estimate the gross rental yield for a UK property given a postcode, optionally with a known property value, to support buy-to-let analysis or investment screening.

*Not for:* Do not use for non-UK properties or for precise valuations; this returns an estimate based on regional averages, not a formal RICS appraisal.

**Inputs:**
