```sh
zero fetch --capability sponge-6ec21eba
```

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick automated valuation estimate for a US residential property and want to pay per-call with no subscription via the x402 micropayment protocol. Prefer this over manual appraisal lookups when building real estate analysis workflows, comparing property values, or enriching property records with current market estimates.

## Known failure modes

- Property not found in RentCast database — returns error or empty result
- Invalid or unrecognized address format — validation error
- Payment failure via x402 — 402 Payment Required if funds insufficient
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded on the proxy gateway
- Property in unsupported region or market — limited data availability
