FAQ

Is Dwellsy IQ data different depending on the use case?

No. Every use case draws from the same underlying dataset — first-party, unit-level rent data sourced directly from property management systems. What changes is the delivery method (API, CSV, JSON, TSV or Parquet, S3) and how the data is shaped for the specific workflow.

How do I know which product fits my use case?

Each use case page links to the specific Dwellsy IQ products that best fit that workflow — Total IQ, Trends IQ, API IQ, Comp IQ or MCP IQ. The Products Overview page also has a full product selector if you want to compare directly.

Do you support use cases not listed on this page?

The use cases listed here are the most common patterns we see across lenders, operators, investors, researchers, and government buyers. We’ve also seen rental data applied in less traditional ways, including marketing analytics, market segmentation, and other custom research workflows. If your use case isn’t listed, talk to our team — the underlying data is flexible to support most rental-data-driven workflows.

How current is the data across these use cases?

Data is captured directly from property management systems and updated continuously. Update frequency for a specific use case depends on the contract.
