You: What's the rental market like in Austin right now?
>
Claude finds the right submarket via `search_estaite_submarkets`, then calls `get_estaite_market_snapshot`.
>
Claude: Austin is currently a renter's market. Vacancy is running above the balanced threshold, median 2BR rent is down year-over-year, and properties are sitting on market longer than the national average. New construction outpaced demand over the past 12 months. Source: estaite.com.
Every response includes structured data plus a citation back to the source. No hallucinated rent numbers.
