Zillow Rent Estimate Scraper

How does Zillow Rent Estimate Scraper work?

The Zillow Rent Estimate Scraper retrieves real-time rent zestimates for a given property address, together with a market summary for the surrounding area and a list of comparable rental floorplans nearby. The data extracted includes the rent zestimate range, area market trends such as median rent and monthly/yearly change, and detailed comparable listings with pricing, square footage, amenities, and availability status.

This Actor performs live queries directly to Zillow, ensuring that all data returned is current and accurate at the time of the request. There is no caching involved, so every invocation retrieves fresh data.

The extraction process involves receiving input parameters for one or more property addresses, executing the rent estimate retrieval for each address, and returning structured JSON output containing the rent zestimate, market summary, and comparable floorplans data.
