Washington Data Scraping API - Anyone Else Doing This?

My original plan was to invest solely in Snohomish and King County Washington.  I wanted my custom CRM (built with Podio) to have the ability to auto-populate property data found on the county assessor site.  This drove me to create an API endpoint written in Python that would do this on demand.  I've met others who build code like this and store the data in tables to be queried later, but then you're stuck with older data.

Is anyone else using property scraping solutions on a large or small scale?  As my company grows, I think I will start using a company like ATTOM Data to provide property data so I don't have to continue to coordinate the build and maintenance of scraping tools.  Fellow nerds let me know what you're up to!
