What it can do
Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
buildium_list_rental_propertiesList rental properties (buildings) with address, unit count, type/subtype and manager. Filter by location (city/state contains), type, subtype, status, rental owner or property ids. Buildium: GET /v1/rentals.
buildium_get_rental_propertyFetch one rental property by id. Buildium: GET /v1/rentals/{propertyId}.
buildium_list_rental_unitsList rental units with unit number, bedrooms/bathrooms, size, market rent and whether each unit is listed or occupied. Filter by property. Buildium: GET /v1/rentals/units.
buildium_get_rental_unitFetch one rental unit by id. Buildium: GET /v1/rentals/units/{unitId}.
buildium_list_rental_ownersList rental owners (the landlords you manage for) with contact details, management-agreement dates and the property ids they own. Buildium: GET /v1/rentals/owners.
buildium_list_leasesList leases with unit, dates, lease type/status, current tenants, rent/deposit account details and eviction flag. Filter by property, owner, unit number, tenant name, dates, lease type or status (Active/Past/Future). Buildium: GET /v1/leases.
buildium_get_leaseFetch one lease by id, including tenants, cosigners, account details and move-out data. Buildium: GET /v1/leases/{leaseId}.

buildium_list_lease_transactionsRead a lease's ledger: charges, payments, credits, refunds, deposits and other transactions with date, type, total amount and journal lines. Read-only — this server never posts to a ledger. Buildium: GET /v1/leases/{leaseId}/transactions.
buildium_list_tenantsList rental tenants with contact details, emergency contact, address and leases. Filter by name, email, phone, unit number, property, owner, unit ids or lease term status. Buildium: GET /v1/leases/tenants.

buildium_list_billsList vendor bills (accounts payable) with dates, memo, vendor, linked work order, reference number, approval status and lines. Read-only. Every call needs a paid filter: Buildium rejects a call without paid_status and without a paid-date range (HTTP 422, paid dates required). Ope
buildium_list_gl_accountsList the chart of accounts: GL accounts with number, name, type/subtype, sub-accounts and bank/credit-card flags. Useful for finding the gl_account_id for work order line items. Buildium: GET /v1/glaccounts.

Line items are optional (quantity x unit price,
buildium_update_work_orderUpdate a work order's details. Buildium's PUT replaces the whole record, so this reads the current work order first and only changes the fields you pass — everything else (including line items and entry contacts) is preserved. Passing line_items REPLACES all existing line items.
buildium_create_todo_taskCreate an internal to-do task assigned to a staff user, optionally tied to a property/unit and category, with a due date. Buildium: POST /v1/tasks/todorequests.
buildium_update_todo_taskUpdate a to-do task — change status (e.g. mark Completed), priority, assignee, due date, title or category, optionally with an update message. Buildium's PUT replaces the whole record, so this reads the current task first and only changes the fields you pass. Buildium: GET then P

Common questions
Is Buildium MCP by usefulapi safe?
It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.38.2) reached the registry yesterday.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.
What can I use instead?
In the same category: Spree Commerce: open-source B2B and marketplace ecommerce, Stripe MCP, MCP Cn Commerce

Buildium MCP by usefulapi
Use Buildium from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — read rental properties, units, owners, leases, tenants, balances, vendors and bills, and create or update work orders and tasks. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Buildium credentials.
Live endpoint: https://buildium.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/buildium
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://buildium.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http buildium https://buildium.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run/mcpto log in. - VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": { "buildium": { "url": "https://buildium.usefulapi.io/mcp" } } }
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Buildium credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/buildium/
On first connect you'll provide your Buildium client ID and client secret (Settings → Developer Tools; Premium plan). They're validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.
