REA Group

REA Group Limited is an ASX-listed (ASX:REA) digital real estate advertising business headquartered in Melbourne, Australia and majority-owned by News Corp. It operates realestate.com.au and realcommercial.com.au, the property data and analytics brand PropTrack, the Mortgage Choice broking network, and REA India (Housing.com, PropTiger, and Makaan). REA Group's public developer surface is delivered through PropTrack, whose developer portal publishes nine OpenAPI 3.1 documents covering 32 operations - OAuth token issuance, address matching and suggestion, property summary, attributes, planning, tenure, listings and transactions, automated valuations (AVM Sale, Rent, Plus and Pro), PDF valuation and property reports, suburb-level market history, supply and demand, auction results and demographics, plus a Disclaimers API that serves the attribution text PropTrack contractually requires alongside its data. Every service also publishes a live, unauthenticated Stoplight mock server, so the contract can be exercised before a commercial agreement is signed. The APIs are documented publicly but are partner-gated - access requires a commercial agreement arranged through an Account Manager, and calls are authenticated with OAuth 2.0 client credentials exchanged for a one-hour JWT bearer token at data.proptrack.com. Alongside PropTrack, REA Group runs the realestate.com.au Partner Portal (partner.realestate.com.au), the integration surface for real estate agencies and their CRM / software providers to publish for-sale and for-rent listings onto realestate.com.au and realcommercial.com.au and to receive buyer and renter enquiries. Listing distribution uses REAXML, REA's long-standing industry-standard XML property feed (schema published at reaxml.realestate.com.au), which the majority of Australian agency CRMs implement, with partner onboarding, API credentials (Client ID + secret) and enquiry delivery managed through the partner portal.

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles REA Group the way a machine reads it — 17 machine-readable artifacts across 11 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — REA Group scores 49.9/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 74/100 (agent native). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile REA Group

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for REA Group. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 11

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

Security Posture 3

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
