## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured rental listing data from HotPads for a specific US city, including rent ranges, property types, and bedroom counts, without needing to build your own scraper. It is best suited for city-level residential rental searches across apartments, houses, condos, and townhomes. Prefer alternatives if you need nationwide aggregation, mortgage/sale listings, commercial properties, or real-time availability checks.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required city or state parameters return a validation error
- Invalid state code (not a two-letter US abbreviation) may return no results or an error
- Invalid property type value (not apartments/houses/condos/townhomes) may default to apartments or return an error
- Page number out of range (beyond 20 or city's actual pages) returns empty or error
- City with no HotPads listings returns an empty result set
- Proxy or scraping failures may return transient 5xx errors

## How this service works

HotPads rental listings for a US city: building or home name, type (apartment complex, house...), street address, city, ZIP, bedrooms, rent range (USD per month), image and link, about 40 per page (page 1 to 20), plus the total number of rentals. Filter by apartments, houses, condos or townhomes. From hotpads.com's public search pages via a residential proxy.

## Output

A paginated list of approximately 40 rental listings per page, each containing the building or home name, property type, full street address, city, ZIP code, number of bedrooms, monthly rent range in USD, a listing image URL, and a direct HotPads listing URL. Also includes the total count of rentals available for the search.
