What does MyHome.ie Property Scraper do?

MyHome.ie Property Scraper is a MyHome.ie scraper and property API for Ireland. It collects listings from the public search result pages of MyHome.ie, for properties for sale and properties to rent, in any county or area. Each listing becomes one clean dataset row with the address, price, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, BER energy rating, property type, floor area, estate agency, coordinates, main photo and the date the listing went live.

You can search in two ways. The simple way is to pick a mode (sale or rent) and a county such as dublin, cork or galway. The flexible way is to paste one or more MyHome.ie search URLs, including URLs with filters, and the scraper follows the pages of each one. The scraper stops as soon as it has collected the number of listings you asked for in maxItems.

The data is read directly from the structured data that MyHome.ie embeds in its search pages, so there is no page rendering, no browser and no login. That keeps runs fast and cheap. The Galway prefill returned 20 listings from one page in the local verification run. Runtime depends on the search, filters and site response; narrow filters can require more pages.

This Actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by MyHome.ie. It only reads publicly visible listing pages.

What data can you get?

Every record contains the fields below. Fields that a listing does not provide are returned as null, never as placeholder text.

Field	Type	Description
id	string	MyHome.ie property ID, unique within a run
sourceUrl	string	Search results page the record came from
url	string	Property brochure page on MyHome.ie
listingType	string	ResidentialForSale or LettingsToRent
title	string	Full display address
address	string	Short street address
eircode	string	Irish postcode when listed
priceText	string	Price as displayed, for example "Price on Application" or "€2,500 / month"
price	number	Number parsed from the price text, monthly for rentals
beds	number	Number of bedrooms, null when the listing does not state it
baths	number	Number of bathrooms, null when the listing does not state it
priceChange	string	Latest price change shown on the listing, null if none
agentPhone	string	Agent phone number, null when not shown
hasVideo	boolean	Whether the listing has a video
berRating	string	Building Energy Rating such as A3 or C1
propertyType	string	Detached House, Apartment, Semi-Detached and so on
status	string	Listing status such as ForSale or ToLet
sizeSqm	number	Floor area in square metres, converted from square feet when the listing gives feet
agencyName	string	Estate agency or advertiser
agentName	string	Negotiator name when listed
latitude	number	Latitude of the property
longitude	number	Longitude of the property
mainPhoto	string	URL of the main photo
photoCount	number	Number of photos on the listing
listedOn	string	ISO date-time when the listing was activated
refreshedOn	string	Last refreshed timestamp reported by MyHome.ie, with original timezone
openViewings	array	Public viewing entries, with original dates and formatted times; [] when none are published
agencyPhone	string	Estate agency phone number
agencyEmail	string	Estate agency contact email
agencyAddress	string	Estate agency office address
agencyUrl	string	Agency profile page on MyHome.ie
agentEmail	string	Negotiator email when listed
agentJobTitle	string	Negotiator job title when listed
photos	array	Up to 50 photo URLs, only when includePhotos is true, otherwise null
isNewBuild	boolean	MyHome.ie new listing flag
saleAgreed	boolean	True when the listing is marked sale agreed

Some listings show "Price on Application" instead of a figure. In that case priceText holds the text and price is null. Many listings leave out the floor area, the agent name or the Eircode, so those fields are filled less often than the address or price.

How to use

1. Open the Actor on Apify and go to the Input tab.
2. Choose the mode: sale or rent.
3. Type a county slug, for example dublin, cork, galway, limerick or waterford. Alternatively paste MyHome.ie search URLs into Start URLs.
4. Set Max items to the number of listings you want.
5. Click Start. When the run finishes, open the Output tab to view the table or download JSON, CSV or Excel.

The scraper requests about one page per second. Each page holds around 20 listings, so a 100 listing run reads five pages. If a county has fewer listings than you asked for, the run ends with what exists. If the county or URL does not exist on MyHome.ie, the run finishes with zero items and a warning in the log instead of failing or inventing data.

A failed search is logged and skipped so later search URLs can still return listings. If no listings are saved, the final status tells you to check the county and mode, use a search results URL rather than a property brochure, or remove restrictive filters. Persistent blocking can be retried later or with proxyConfiguration enabled. Searches that produce no matching item are time-bounded. No placeholder or error rows are saved.

The optional hasViewings filter makes a viewing shortlist from the same search feed. With it enabled, only listings with at least one published openViewings entry count toward maxItems. Each entry keeps MyHome.ie's original keys, including StartDate, EndDate, and FormattedString when provided. An empty array means the source published no entries; null means the source field was missing. Times retain their source timezone. Entries may change or be cancelled, so check the brochure before travelling. The filter tests presence, not whether the time is still in the future.

refreshedOn complements listedOn: activation and refresh are different timestamps. Compare refresh timestamps between your saved runs to identify listings worth reviewing, but do not treat a refresh as proof of a price change. Compare price and priceText separately. These fields come from the existing search page and require no additional detail requests.

Input

Field	Type	Description
county	string	County or area slug, for example dublin. Used when Start URLs is empty. Default dublin.
mode	string	sale or rent. Default sale.
startUrls	array	Optional MyHome.ie search URLs. They replace county and mode.
minPrice	integer	Keep only listings priced at or above this euro amount. Listings without a numeric price are dropped when set.
maxPrice	integer	Keep only listings priced at or below this euro amount.
minBeds	integer	Keep only listings with at least this many bedrooms.
propertyType	string	Keep only listings whose property type contains this text, for example apartment.
berRatings	array	Keep only these BER first letters, for example ["A", "B"]. A matches A1, A2 and A3; use letters rather than full grades.
hasViewings	boolean	Return only listings with published open viewing entries. Default false.
includePhotos	boolean	Add a photos array with up to 50 image URLs. Default false.
maxItems	integer	Maximum unique matching listings across every URL combined, 1-10000, default 50. Counts listings that pass the filters.
proxyConfiguration	object	Apify Proxy settings. Default is no proxy.

Example input for rentals in Cork using a search URL:

{
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.myhome.ie/rentals/cork/property-to-rent" }],
  "maxItems": 20
}

Filters are applied to the listings the scraper reads, and it keeps paging until maxItems matching listings are found or the search ends, so narrow filters on a large county read more pages. Example with filters:

{
  "mode": "sale",
  "county": "dublin",
  "minBeds": 3,
  "maxPrice": 500000,
  "berRatings": ["A", "B"],
  "maxItems": 40
}

Example input for properties for sale in Dublin:

{
  "mode": "sale",
  "county": "dublin",
  "maxItems": 40
}

Viewing shortlist example:

{"county":"galway","mode":"sale","hasViewings":true,"maxItems":7}

    }
  ]
}

A rental record has the same fields. Its priceText reads like "€2,500 / month", listingType is LettingsToRent and status is ToLet.

Duplicates are removed by property ID, including promoted listings that appear on more than one page. The id field is unique within a run. maxItems is one shared budget across all URLs, so earlier searches may fill it before later URLs are visited. Pagination begins at page 1 even if an input URL includes another page number.

How much does it cost?

The Actor is charged per result, which means per listing saved to the dataset. You pay for the listings you receive and nothing for pages that return no data. See the Pricing tab on the Actor page for the current rate. Because the Actor stops at maxItems, you control the maximum cost of every run by choosing that number. Platform usage for compute is small because the Actor needs no browser.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

You can call this Actor from any MCP compatible AI client through the Apify MCP server. Add this server URL to your client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=axiomworks/myhome-property-scraper"
    }
  }
}

Example prompts for your agent:

Prompt: "Get 30 three bedroom houses for sale in Cork from MyHome.ie and list the cheapest five."

Prompt: "Scrape rentals in Dublin and tell me the average monthly rent by number of bedrooms."

Prompt: "Collect listings in Galway and group them by estate agency."

The input field descriptions are written so an agent can fill them in without further help: county, mode and maxItems are enough for most tasks.

Integrations and API

You can run the Actor from your own code with the Apify API. Replace YOUR_TOKEN with your Apify API token.

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("axiomworks/myhome-property-scraper").call(
    run_input={"mode": "rent", "county": "dublin", "maxItems": 50}
)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["title"], item["priceText"])

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('axiomworks/myhome-property-scraper').call({
    mode: 'sale',
    county: 'galway',
    maxItems: 50,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
const titles = items.map((item) => item.title);

cURL:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/axiomworks~myhome-property-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode": "sale", "county": "cork", "maxItems": 20}'

You can also schedule runs to monitor prices over time, send results to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier or n8n, or trigger a webhook when a run finishes. Run the same search daily and compare id and price between runs to spot new listings and price changes.

FAQ

How many listings can I get? As many as MyHome.ie shows for the search. Large counties such as Dublin have hundreds of listings, smaller rental markets only a few dozen. Set maxItems to the number you need.

Which counties can I use? Any county or area that has a MyHome.ie search page. The slug is the part of the URL after /residential/ or /rentals/. If you are unsure, open MyHome.ie, run a search, copy the URL and paste it into Start URLs.

Can I use filters such as price range or number of bedrooms? Yes, through Start URLs. Apply the filters on MyHome.ie, copy the resulting search URL and paste it in. The scraper keeps the filters and only changes the page number.

Why is price empty for some listings? Some advertisers show "Price on Application". The text is kept in priceText and price is null.

Why are latitude and longitude sometimes empty? Not every listing has an accurate map position. When no usable coordinates exist, both fields are null.

Do I need a proxy? Normally not. The default is no proxy. If your runs are blocked, enable Apify Proxy in the proxy setting; blocked requests are retried with backoff on a fresh session.

Does the Actor use AI? No. It reads structured data from the page and does no AI enrichment.

What happens when I enter a county that does not exist? The run finishes with zero items and a warning in the log.

Is it legal to scrape MyHome.ie?

This Actor reads only public listing pages that anyone can open without logging in. It does not collect data behind a login and does not bypass any protection. Property listings are mostly facts about homes and advertiser business details, but they can include personal data, such as the name of an agent. Data protection rules such as GDPR can apply to personal data you collect, so use it for a legitimate purpose and keep it only as long as you need it. The website's terms of service may restrict automated access, so check them and your own legal position before commercial use. This is general information, not legal advice.

If a field is missing, a search URL is not recognised or the page layout changes, please open an issue from the Actor page on Apify with the input you used and the run link. Feedback on new fields is welcome.
