Via API (Python)

client = ApifyClient('YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN')

    'url': 'https://www.redfin.com/city/17151/CA/San-Francisco',

Integrations

Connect Redfin Scraper with your tools:

Tips and best practices

• Use Redfin URLs for best results — paste a URL directly from redfin.com to ensure correct region targeting.
• ZIP codes work too — enter a 5-digit ZIP code in the location field as an alternative to full URLs.
• Filter early — use price, bed, bath, and sqft filters to get relevant results instead of filtering after extraction.
• Sold listings — set status to sold to get recently sold properties with actual sale prices.
• Max 500 per request — Redfin returns up to 500 listings per search. For larger areas, search by specific neighborhoods or ZIP codes.
• Sort strategically — use days-on-redfin-asc to find the newest listings first.

Limitations

• Data is sourced from Redfin and subject to their availability
• Maximum 500 properties per search — split large areas into smaller regions if needed
• Location search requires a Redfin URL or ZIP code (free-text city names are not supported)
• Some fields (listing remarks, HOA) may not be available for all properties
