## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Homes.co.nz Scraper

Collect rich residential listing data from `homes.co.nz` using structured site data.

### What it does

- Supports `search` mode from plain location names such as `Wellington`.
- Supports `url` mode for detail URLs and map URLs.
- Accepts multiple locations or multiple URLs in one run.
- Advances forward across structured result pages without relying on DOM pagination.
- Pulls structured listing data directly from the site's underlying data sources.
- Enriches each listing with property card data, agent and branch details, title metadata, valuations, media, and open home schedules.
- Applies structured filters for listing status, bedrooms, bathrooms, and price range.
- Supports output sorting by publication time or numeric price when available.

### Why this actor is different

The actor is structured-data first:

- Detail pages are resolved from the page's server-rendered state and then enriched with listing data.
- Map pages are resolved from the page's server-rendered state and then expanded into individual listings.
- Property enrichment adds valuation, title, branch, and agent data.

That keeps extraction faster and more stable than page-structure parsing.

### Input

- `mode`: `search` or `url`
- `locations`: one or more location names for search mode
- `urls`: one or more Homes detail or map URLs for URL mode
- `listingStatus`: `for_sale`, `for_rent`, `just_sold`, or `off_market`
- `minBedrooms`, `minBathrooms`, `minPrice`, `maxPrice`: structured query filters
- `sortBy`: default ordering, newest, oldest, highest price, or lowest price
- `maxListings`: maximum number of listings to output
- `maxPages`: maximum output pages per search target
- `pageSize`: listings to emit per output page
- `maxMapItems`: maximum listing candidates to collect from each map URL before detail enrichment
- `fetchPropertyCards`: whether to include extra property enrichment
- `includeRawApiResponses`: include raw structured payloads in output for debugging

### Output highlights

Each item contains the standard listing fields plus richer structured sections such as:

- `openHomes`
- `images`
- `media`
- `agents`
- `branch`
- `propertyDetails`
- `valuations`
- `estimates`
- `titleRecord`
- `sourceEndpoints`
- `seedContext`

### Notes

- This actor is tuned for structured site data first.
- If a Homes URL changes shape, the fallback is still the page's embedded state rather than page selectors.

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

Search mode resolves location names and expands them into listing results. URL mode accepts Homes detail URLs or map URLs directly.
## `locations` (type: `array`):

One or more location names to resolve through Homes and collect listings from.
## `listingStatus` (type: `string`):

Choose which Homes listing bucket to collect.
## `minBedrooms` (type: `integer`):

Only include listings with at least this many bedrooms when the structured feed exposes that filter.
## `minBathrooms` (type: `integer`):

Only include listings with at least this many bathrooms when the structured feed exposes that filter.
## `minPrice` (type: `integer`):

Lower price bound to send to the structured Homes query when supported for the chosen listing status.
## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`):

Upper price bound to send to the structured Homes query when supported for the chosen listing status.
## `sortBy` (type: `string`):

Applies to the output ordering of collected listings. Price sorting only affects records where a numeric price can be derived from the structured listing data.
## `urls` (type: `array`):

One or more homes.co.nz detail URLs or map URLs. Multi-URL supported. Detail URLs return a single enriched listing. Map URLs expand into structured result pages and walk forward — when used this way, the search filters and sort above also apply.
## `maxListings` (type: `integer`):

Hard ceiling on listings output across the whole run — pagination stops as soon as this is hit, in both Search and URL modes. Use 0 for no explicit cap.
## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

Maximum output pages to emit for each search target or map URL. Defaults to the cap so pagination only stops at maxListings — lower it to throttle deep walks.
## `pageSize` (type: `integer`):

Number of listings to emit on each output page.
## `fetchPropertyCards` (type: `boolean`):

Include extra valuation, title, branch, and agent data when available. Adds one additional request per listing — disable to cut cost when you only need core fields.
## `includeRawApiResponses` (type: `boolean`):

Include the raw structured API payloads in each output item for debugging.
## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy configuration for Homes requests. Apify Proxy is recommended for production runs.
