Rightmove Sold Prices Scraper

Scrapes sold property prices and full transaction history from Rightmove's /house-prices/ pages (UK HM Land Registry and Registers of Scotland data) without any browser overhead.

Features

• No browser – scrapes the server-rendered pages directly (fast and cheap).
• Full transaction history – every recorded sale for each property (price, deed date, % change, new build flag, tenure).
• Rich property data – address, postcode (outcode/incode), latitude/longitude, encId, referenceId, uniqueAddressKey, deliveryPointId, data source (ROS/HMLR).
• Last-listed listing data – keyFeatures, bedrooms/bathrooms, images, floorplans, nearest stations, listing dates and history are included when Rightmove has the previous marketing listing.
• Deduplication – properties are de-duplicated by their Rightmove ID across all inputs.
• Dual extraction – decodes the embedded page data model for the richest output, with a pure-HTML fallback parser if decoding ever fails.
• Pagination – walks all result pages automatically (up to Rightmove's ~40 page / ~1,000 result cap per area).
• Proxy support – works with Apify Proxy; residential proxies recommended for heavy use.

Input

Field	Type	Description
listUrls	array	Rightmove /house-prices/ search URLs, e.g. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/ab10.html or https://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/london.html
propertyUrls	array	Optional direct links to sold property detail pages, e.g. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/details/1229be73-9bef-421f-a8de-78382d56f358
maxProperties	integer	Maximum number of sold properties to collect (default 1000).
proxy	object	Apify Proxy configuration. Leave off (useApifyProxy: false) for fastest scraping; datacenter proxies make Rightmove respond much slower.
delayBetweenRequestsMs	integer	Delay between page requests (default 250 ms).
maxConcurrency	integer	How many detail pages to fetch in parallel (default 10). Higher = faster but more likely to trigger blocking.

The listing block is only populated when Rightmove holds the previous marketing listing for that property. If a detail page cannot be scraped, a reduced record built from the search results is returned instead.

Limits & notes

• Rightmove caps a single /house-prices/ area search at about 40 pages (~1,000 results). For larger areas, split into postcode-district URLs.
• Prices are from the Land Registry / Registers of Scotland records that Rightmove publishes and may lag the actual sale date.
• Sold prices data is provided "as-is" by Rightmove; verify critical figures before making decisions.
• Running without a proxy is fastest and is the default. Only enable Apify Proxy if Rightmove starts blocking the direct connection; note your plan has no residential proxy available, so the datacenter fallback will be noticeably slower.
