Building & Listing Types

BuildingType

Used in search filters (buildingType parameter) and returned in listing/building responses.

Value	Description
`CONDO`	Condominium: individually owned units in a shared building
`CO_OP`	Co-operative: residents own shares in a corporation that owns the building
`CONDOP`	Condop: a co-op that operates under condo-like rules (a real NYC ownership hybrid)
`RENTAL`	Rental building: units available for lease only
`TOWNHOUSE`	Townhouse: multi-story attached or semi-attached home
`HOUSE`	Single-family house
`SINGLEFAMILY`	Single-family dwelling
`TWOFAMILY`	Two-family house
`THREEFAMILY`	Three-family house
`FOURFAMILY`	Four-family dwelling
`MULTI_FAMILY`	Multi-family residential building
`MIXED_USE`	Mixed-use building (residential + commercial)
`HYBRID`	Mixed ownership/structure type reported by the source
`COMMERCIAL`	Commercial building
`UNKNOWN`	The source reported an unknown type, or a type Borough does not recognize

buildingType is null when the source did not report one.

MULTIFAMILY (no underscore) is accepted as an input alias for MULTI_FAMILY on the buildingType and excludeBuildingType filters. Responses always return the canonical spelling MULTI_FAMILY.

Usage in search

Pass one or more values as a comma-separated string:

# Search for condos and co-ops
curl "https://borough.qwady.app/v1/search/rentals?buildingType=CONDO,CO_OP"

# Search only townhouses
curl "https://borough.qwady.app/v1/search/sales?buildingType=TOWNHOUSE"

const results = await borough.rentals.search({
  buildingType: "CONDO,CO_OP",
});

ListingStatus

Returned in the status field of listing responses.

Value	Description
`ACTIVE`	Currently available on the market
`IN_CONTRACT`	Under contract / offer accepted (live data only; see note)
`OFF_MARKET`	No longer available

Stored listings and search results carry ACTIVE or OFF_MARKET only, so listings transition directly from ACTIVE to OFF_MARKET when they leave the market. IN_CONTRACT can appear only in live data: Business live-first responses from GET /v1/property/{id} and /v1/property/by-url, live events on the listing stream, and listing-watcher change events (newValue), when the live listing reports it. Match on it if present, but do not rely on it for in-contract detection.

Search endpoints return only ACTIVE listings; there is no status filter on search. Cached property detail (/v1/property/{id}) returns ACTIVE or OFF_MARKET listings. Building listings accept a status filter (for example /v1/building/{id}/listings?status=OFF_MARKET); status=IN_CONTRACT returns no listings, because that status is never stored.

SaleType

Used as a filter on /v1/search/sales only (not applicable to rentals).

Value	Description
`RESALE`	Standard resale: existing owner selling
`SPONSOR_UNIT`	New development or sponsor sale: first sale from developer
`FORECLOSURE`	Foreclosure: bank-owned or distressed sale
`RESTRICTED`	Income- or age-restricted sale (HDFC-style)
`AUCTION`	Sold at auction
`SHORT`	Short sale: lender-approved sale below the outstanding mortgage
`UNKNOWN`	The source reported an unknown sale type, or one Borough does not recognize

saleType is null when the source did not report one.

  buildingType: "CONDO",
