Search an area for broker's license

We will start by search the Dallas, Texas area for broker's with licenseNumber attached to the record results. You can use the following query to pull this data:

{
    "query": "country:\"US\" AND province:TX AND city:dallas AND brokers.licenseNumber:*",
    "num_records": 10
}

This will return a broker array with licenseNumbers similar to the follow slice of property data:

 "address": "1907 EBBTIDE LN",
            "brokers": [
                {
                    "agent": "Toni Nuncil",
                    "company": "Paragon, REALTORS",
                    "dateSeen": "2022-11-26T02:04:53.747Z",
                    "licenseNumber": "TREC #0512453"
                },
                {
                    "agent": "Ivana Buciol",
                    "company": "Henderson Luna Realty",
                    "dateSeen": "2023-07-20T03:49:35.706Z",
                    "licenseNumber": "TREC #0472367",
                    "phones": [
                        "6120472367"
                    ]
                }
            ],
            "city": "DALLAS",

LicenseNumber

Please note that licenseNumberis not a guarantied field. It is only populated when provided by our data sources.

Searching for a specific broker's listings by licenseNumber

Now that you have a licenseNumber to search by, lets create a query to find all the listings tied to that broker. Note that we are using an exact match dictated by the escaped quotes.

{
    "query": "brokers.licenseNumber:\"TREC #0512453\"",
    "num_records": 0
}

This will provide you will the count of all properties that are listed by the broker. Depending if multiple listings are found you can modify the query to result the properties you need. This will allow a greater insight to the type / price of property a specific broker lists.

Searching for a property broker by name

Let's say you do not have the license number but you have their name. You can easily search both the brokers.agent & mostRecentBrokerAgent field for the name that matches. This query will show you how to do this:

{
    "query": "country:US AND province:WY AND (mostRecentBrokerAgent:\"Rita Lovell\" OR brokers.agent:\"Rita Lovell\")",
    "num_records":10
}
