**Category:** Real Estate | **Website:** [biggerpocket.com/](https://biggerpocket.com/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/15eb50e0-c682-4e7d-a30c-e11780e6848a/biggerpocket-com-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/15eb50e0-c682-4e7d-a30c-e11780e6848a/biggerpocket-com-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/biggerpocket/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get business

Retrieve detailed information about a specific business from the BiggerPockets directory, including markets served, specialties, about description, and license information.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `business_id` | string | Yes | Numeric business ID from search_directory results (e.g. '3366'). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/biggerpocket/get-business \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"business_id":"<string>"}'
```

### Search directory

Search the BiggerPockets business directory for investor-friendly real estate professionals. Returns paginated listings of businesses filtered by type and location. Each page contains up to 8 results. Results are auto-iterated across pages. When no business_type is specified, returns all types. Some types (agent, lender, property_manager) may return empty results due to dedicated finder flows on the site.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `business_type` | string | No | Filter by business category. |
| `location` | string | No | Filter by location (city name or state abbreviation, e.g. 'Austin' or 'TX'). |
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for pagination. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/biggerpocket/search-directory \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"business_type":"<string>","location":"<string>","page":"<integer>"}'
```
