Could turn out pricey due to having to use the geocoding API.

Possibly: only show address after having clicked the buy/rent button and then save the address in the feature object.

Which geocoding API are you using and what is the monthly rates? If you are geocaching hundreds of millions of properties, that would be upwards of thousands of USD in real money cost. A solution would be to cache each geocoded address based on the building and serve the cached results instead, with the cache being periodically updated every so often (either on enough donations received or every few months).

@James103 I'm considering Mapbox' Geocoding. https://docs.mapbox.com/help/how-mapbox-works/geocoding/
Best case scenario the vector data that I use to load all the buildings would include the address per building loaded, but I haven't looked into that yet. In that scenario I wouldn't have to use geocoding at all
