Exclusive Rental Listing Automated Syndication & Fee Model Validator

Following legislation banning tenant-paid broker fees, brokerages are transitioning to direct landlord exclusive listing retainers. Construct an automated listing syndication and legal fee validator using FastAPI and Pydantic to filter and publish listing feeds. Ensure 100% verification that listing feeds disclose landlord-paid representation.

What you are building

Build a FastAPI listing syndication service to validate listing fee structures and automatically enforce landlord-paid disclosures.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates API HTTP response codes and verification flags on non-compliant syndication feed submissions.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

How submissions are scored

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

rejection_pass

Ensures illegal tenant fee payload is rejected with 422.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

validation_accuracy

Accuracy in classification of feed compliance. • target: 1 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

  • Develop high-throughput REST API endpoints using FastAPI for rental syndication ingestion

  • Enforce strict Pydantic payload models validating listing fee parameters

  • Reject listings that attempt to pass broker commission charges to prospective tenants

  • Generate standardized MLS/IDX feed outputs complying with landlord-paid listing rules
