Frequently asked questions
No. PadMapper lists rentals only, so this API has no sale listings.
A building matches when any of its units falls in your price window. Read min_price and max_price on each row for the unit range.
Use page and limit (1 to 100). The response carries total, returned, and has_more so you know when to stop.
No. Failed requests return a non-success HTTP response with an error object and are not charged.
