Searching for HOA fees

Fees are a top-level field within the Datafiniti property schema. You can search for any property with associated fees data by doing something like:

{
  "query": "fees.type:HOA"
}

Any returned fees data will look something like:

 "fees": [
   {
     "amountMax": 473,
     "amountMin": 473,
     "currency": "USD",
     "dateSeen": [
       "2023-03-08T02:11:00.000Z",
       "2023-03-27T13:15:00.000Z",
       "2023-03-28T17:28:00.000Z",
       "2023-02-18T04:42:00.000Z"
     ],
     "type": "HOA"
   },
   {
