Yo, I’ve been down this rabbit hole too. The apartments.com api to get costs is kinda messy, ngl. The cost data is inconsistent because it’s pulled from multiple sources (landlords, property managers, etc.).
One thing that helped me was filtering the response for fields like "rent" or "price" and then cleaning up the data manually. It’s not ideal, but it works.
For rate limits, try adding a delay between requests. I used `time.sleep(2)` in my script, and it stopped the throttling.
