## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability cbs-housing-snapshot-by-dutch-postcode-d0f8124c
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the CBS housing snapshot for Dutch postcode 1012AB — I want to see the median WOZ value, price trend, and how many transactions happened there?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, per-postcode Dutch housing market statistics (median WOZ value, price trend, transaction volume) sourced from CBS — especially for property valuation, investment research, or neighborhood analysis in the Netherlands. At $0.01 per call it is cost-effective for individual lookups. Prefer alternatives if you need full CBS microdata exports, pan-European housing data, or bulk batch processing of many postcodes simultaneously.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed postcode returns an error — postcode must follow Dutch format (4 digits + 2 uppercase letters, e.g. 1012AB)
- No data available for very rural or newly created postcodes
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance on Base Mainnet) results in HTTP 402 with no data returned
- Rate limiting or upstream CBS data unavailability may cause transient failures

## How this service works

Pay $0.01 USDC per call to validate IBANs, EU VAT numbers and Dutch postcodes, and to query CBS housing, company, domain and EU sanctions data on Base Mainnet.

## Output

A JSON object containing the queried postcode, median WOZ property value (in euros), price trend as a percentage, transaction volume (number of transactions), and a timestamp indicating data freshness.
