README
------
This is a Python wrapper for [Zillow's API](http://www.zillow.com/howto/api/APIOverview.htm).

Currrently it supports the GetDeepSearchResults and GetUpdatedPropertyDetails APIs.

It allows you to directly convert an address/zipcode (GetDeepSearchResults API) or zillow id (GetUpdatedPropertyDetails API) into real estate data from the Zillow database.

Documentation available here: http://pyzillow.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Dependencies
------------
It requires the xml.etree module, included with Python versions 2.7 and later.
The [requests](http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/index.html) library is also needed and will be installed by setuptools.

It is developed on Python 2.7 but should work on earlier versions. We have not tested it with Python 3. Sorry.

Currently it is supporting the GetDeepSearchResults and GetUpdatedPropertyDetails API.

It allows you to directly convert an address/zipcode (GetDeepSearchResults API) or zillow id (GetUpdatedPropertyDetails API) into
real estate data based on the Zillow database.

pip install pyzillow
