# `search_plots`

> **Casafari is the AI agent-native real estate data intelligence platform.** The most complete property index in Europe: a deduplicated, cleaned property graph of residential and commercial property, for sale and for rent, in 16 countries. Every property is one record with its full price and market history. [How the property graph is built](/docs/property-graph).

Search commercial plots (Germany). Product: [Claro AI](/docs/claro). Scope: Germany, commercial plots, a set of its own, never premises.

Call it as `search_plots` on Claro AI's own server, not through `https://mcp.casafari.com/`. Its address on the platform is `https://platform.casafari.com/mcp/claro`: Streamable HTTP, a platform API key or the platform's OAuth, metered in platform units.

Over REST: [`POST /v1/plots/search`](/docs/rest/claro/search-plots) (equivalent). [MCP and REST compared](/docs/parity#claro-ai).

## What does Search commercial plots (Germany) do?

Find plots of land for sale or rent in Germany for a commercial building, from Casafari's property graph. Plots only, never premises: counts and results come from a separate set, one result per plot however many agencies advertise it (the others in also_listed_by). Criteria are data: Länder (regions), municipalities, postcodes, plot type, operation, plot area, sale price and price per m², keywords in the property's own words, and `commercial_use`, how far the property's own text says a commercial building can go on the plot. Levels: zoned_commercial (GE, GI, MK, MU stated), zoned_mixed_or_special (MI, SO, MD stated: check the plan), commercial_use_stated (commercial use stated as allowed or suitable, no class: read the quote), building_land_use_not_stated, residential_only_stated, zoned_leisure_special (SO for recreation), not_building_land_stated, not_stated. The default is the first three; send "all" or any list to widen it. Each result gives its level with the quote it rests on and, for a stated class, zoning_source (a Flächennutzungsplan is not binding), the facts read from the text (zoning class, serviced, B-Plan, §34/§35, building permit, GRZ, GFZ), an excerpt and the agency's link. The level is what the property's text says, not a zoning check; coordinates are approximate.
