## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

## ApartmentFinder Scraper - Rentals, Prices & Floor Plans

### What is ApartmentFinder Scraper?

**ApartmentFinder Scraper** is a tool that lets you **scrape rental listings from ApartmentFinder.com**: rent, address, phone number, rent by bedroom count, specials, photos and map coordinates, and with one switch the full listing page with **floor plans, every available unit with its price, fees, pet policy, lease terms, amenities and renter rating**. Type a city or ZIP code or paste any ApartmentFinder.com search link, click **Start**, and download the listings as Excel, CSV or JSON.

- ⚡ **Speed:** 3,000 Houston listings in about 1.5 minutes, 1,000 Phoenix listings with full details in about 4 minutes (our tests)
- 🏙️ **Past the 750-result limit:** ApartmentFinder.com shows at most 750 listings per search; this scraper gets thousands from a big city
- 🏢 **Unit-level data:** every available unit with its number, rent and size, not just a price range
- 🔓 **No login:** no ApartmentFinder.com account needed
- 💸 **Free to try:** the $5 of free usage every Apify account gets each month covers about 5,000 listings from search results

### What data can you extract from ApartmentFinder.com?

| | | |
|---|---|---|
| 🏢 Property name | 📍 Full address, ZIP, latitude and longitude | 📞 Leasing office phone |
| 💲 Rent from / to | 🛏️ Rent by bedroom count | 🎁 Rent specials and price drops |

### How to scrape ApartmentFinder.com

1. [Create a free Apify account](https://console.apify.com/sign-up) (no credit card needed).
2. Open **ApartmentFinder Scraper**.
3. Enter cities, ZIP codes or ApartmentFinder.com search links, one per line.
4. Set how many listings you want per location, and turn on **Include full listing details** if you need floor plans, units and fees. Then click **Start**.
5. When the run finishes, download your listings as Excel, CSV, JSON, HTML or XML.

### How much does it cost to scrape ApartmentFinder.com listings?

You pay per listing saved, and the price depends on whether you turn on **Include full listing details**:

| Listing | Price per 1,000 listings |
|---|---|
| Listing from search results | **$1.00** |
| Listing with full details | **$3.00** |

Platform usage is included in these prices, so there is nothing else to pay for a run.

Example: 1,000 listings from search results cost $1.00, and 1,000 listings with full details cost $3.00.

Every Apify account gets **$5 of free usage each month**, so you can try it at no cost. See the **Pricing** tab for details. Setting **Max listings per location** keeps the cost of a run under control, and you can also set a maximum cost per run.

### ⬇️ Input

| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Locations or search links | Cities (`Austin, TX`), ZIP codes (`78705`) or ApartmentFinder.com search links such as `https://www.apartmentfinder.com/Texas/Dallas-Apartments/2-Bedrooms` |
| Listing links | Links to single listings, like `https://www.apartmentfinder.com/Texas/Austin-Apartments/The-Watson-Apartments-h388vb2` |
| Max listings per location | How many listings to save for each location (default 100). Set 0 for every listing |
| Include full listing details | Open each listing for floor plans, available units, fees, full amenities, lease terms, description, office hours and rating |
| Connection settings | The default works for most runs |

The first 100 listings in two cities:

```json
{
  "locations": ["Austin, TX", "Denver, CO"],
  "maxItems": 100
}
```

Every two-bedroom listing in Dallas, with floor plans and units:

```json
{
  "locations": ["https://www.apartmentfinder.com/Texas/Dallas-Apartments/2-Bedrooms"],
  "maxItems": 0,
  "includeDetails": true
}
```

Single listings:

```json
{
  "listingUrls": [
    "https://www.apartmentfinder.com/Texas/Austin-Apartments/The-Watson-Apartments-h388vb2",
    "https://www.apartmentfinder.com/Texas/Austin-Apartments/The-704-Apartments"
  ]
}
```

### ⬆️ Output

Every listing is one row. Without details you get the search fields (address, coordinates, phone, rent, rent by beds, specials, photo). With details you also get floor plans, units, fees and the rest (lists shortened here):

}
```

The **Overview** tab shows the listings as a table with photos, the **Details** tab the property facts, and the **Location** tab the addresses and coordinates for mapping. The run report lists any page that could not be read, and why.

### How can I use ApartmentFinder.com data?

- **Rent market research:** compare rents by city, ZIP code and bedroom count
- **Real estate investment:** size up a market's supply, specials and price drops before you buy
- **Competitor pricing for property managers:** track the rents, specials and fees of nearby communities
- **Lead generation:** build lists of apartment communities with their phone numbers
- **Relocation and housing services:** find available units for clients, including student and affordable housing
- **Data science and maps:** plot listings with coordinates and rents

### How many listings can I get?

ApartmentFinder.com shows at most 750 listings for one search. For a big city the scraper covers the whole rent range, so you can get thousands of listings from a single city, and a property is saved only once. A search link that already has a price filter returns the listings that filter shows, up to 750; the run report says when a search had more than it could return.

#### Is there a limit on how many listings I can get?

Yes. Set up your search on ApartmentFinder.com (city, price, bedrooms), copy the link from the address bar and paste it into **Locations or search links**.

#### Do I need an ApartmentFinder.com account?

No. The scraper reads the same public listings anyone can see without signing in.

#### Can I connect ApartmentFinder Scraper to other tools or AI agents?

Yes. Start runs and download results with the Apify API or the Python and JavaScript clients, send results to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets or Slack with Apify integrations and webhooks, or let AI assistants and agents run it through the Apify MCP server at [mcp.apify.com](https://mcp.apify.com).

#### Is it legal to scrape ApartmentFinder.com?

This scraper collects publicly available listing information about rental properties, such as rents, addresses and leasing office phone numbers. Some listings can still contain personal data, which may be protected by laws such as GDPR, so only scrape it for a legitimate reason and ask a lawyer if you are unsure. You can read more in [Is web scraping legal?](https://blog.apify.com/is-web-scraping-legal/)

ApartmentFinder Scraper is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by ApartmentFinder.com or CoStar Group.
