• Competitive intelligence — track competitor listings, inventory changes, and pricing shifts in real time

Why This Actor?

ImmobilienScout24 has no public API and no bulk export. The site uses aggressive anti-bot protection (AWS WAF / Akamai) that blocks most automated access. This actor uses a hybrid anti-bot engine — a headless browser obtains anti-bot tokens, then high-concurrency HTTP requests with JSON API consumption and HTML parsing deliver reliable, structured data at scale.

Compared to other ImmoScout24 scrapers:

• Hybrid anti-bot handling with AWS WAF challenge mitigation and token refresh
• Session-sticky residential proxy usage for consistent access
• True pagination from the site's search API — not limited to first-page results
• Optional full expose detail extraction for complete property descriptions
• Competitive pricing from $0.70 per 1,000 listings

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use this actor instead of the official ImmobilienScout24 API?

The official ImmobilienScout24 REST API is designed for property managers to manage their own listings — it requires a partner contract with OAuth2 authentication and is not available for data extraction or market research. This actor provides an alternative way to access publicly available listing data without needing a partner agreement.

What are the best alternatives to ImmobilienScout24 for German real estate data?

Germany's major property portals are ImmobilienScout24 (#1), Immowelt (#2), and Kleinanzeigen (classifieds). Each has different listing coverage and data availability. For comprehensive German market data, combining multiple sources gives the best results.

Can I scrape ImmobilienScout24 without an API key?

Yes. This actor does not require an ImmobilienScout24 account, login, or API key. It extracts publicly available property listing data that ImmobilienScout24 displays to all visitors. You only need an Apify account and residential proxy access.

How do I get German real estate data for market analysis?

Use this actor to extract property listings by city, district, or region. Set location to any German city (Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt, etc.) and choose rent or buy. The actor returns structured data including prices, sizes, rooms, and locations — ready for analysis in Excel, Google Sheets, or your preferred BI tool.

What data fields are available from ImmobilienScout24?

The actor extracts: price (with type), rooms, living area (m²), location/address, energy efficiency class, images, agent contact information, listing features, construction year (with detail mode), and the unique Scout ID. Enable fetchDetails for full property descriptions and additional expose data.

Is it legal to scrape ImmobilienScout24?

This actor extracts only publicly available property listing data that ImmobilienScout24 displays to all visitors. The data is factual (prices, addresses, sizes) and does not contain private personal information. Use the data responsibly and in compliance with applicable laws and ImmobilienScout24's terms of service.

How much does it cost to scrape German property listings?

Pricing is pay-per-result at $0.70 per 1,000 listings (Bronze tier), with lower rates for higher subscription plans. The actor start event costs $0.00005. Enabling fetchDetails increases proxy bandwidth usage but provides richer data.

Can I track price changes on ImmobilienScout24?

Yes. Schedule regular runs (daily or weekly) and compare results over time. The actor extracts current prices for each listing — by tracking the same Scout IDs across runs, you can identify price drops and market trends.

How do I extract German real estate data to CSV or JSON?

Run the actor, then export the dataset from the Apify console as CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML. You can also pull results programmatically via the Apify API or connect directly to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, or n8n.

What regions does this actor cover?

The actor covers all of Germany via ImmobilienScout24.de. Search by city name (Berlin, München, Hamburg), zip code (10117), or region. The actor resolves locations automatically to the matching ImmobilienScout24 search path.
