AI agents call property_detail_mortgage to retrieve information from Attom without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves mortgage information about a property. It performs a data query against ATTOM's real estate database with no destructive, modifying, or executable side effects. Even though mortgage data is sensitive, the tool itself only reads and returns information without enabling changes, deletions, or financial transactions.
