Redfin Scraper: US Real Estate Listings API

Collect homes for sale and recently sold homes from Redfin (redfin.com) across the United States. Paste any Redfin search URL with the filters you already set on the site, or pick cities and ZIP codes. Each home comes back as one clean record with price in USD, street address, city, state, beds, baths, square feet, home type, photos and the listing URL. For sold homes you can also add the sale history, the last sale price and date, and the property tax history.

Use it as a simple Redfin API for spreadsheets, dashboards, valuation models and scheduled market reports. No Redfin account is needed.

What you can do with it

• Track a local market. Run the same Austin, Seattle or Denver search every morning and watch new listings, price changes and homes that leave the market.
• Build comparable sales (comps). Search homes sold in the last year in a ZIP code, add includeHistory, and get the real sale price and sale date for each home next to its beds, baths and square feet.
• Feed a valuation or investment model. Price, square feet and room counts come as numbers, so price per square foot is one formula away.
• Find leads for agents, lenders and home services. Export fresh listings in your service area with address and listing link.
• Research housing trends. Compare asking prices across cities, neighborhoods and home types with one input.
• Reuse your Redfin searches. Set price, beds, baths, home type or any other filter on redfin.com, copy the address bar, paste it here.

Quick start

Search the default city (Austin, TX) with no input at all, or start small with ten homes:

{"cities": ["Austin, TX"], "maxPages": 1, "maxResults": 10}

Paste a Redfin search URL with your own filters:

{
  "startUrls": [
    {"url": "https://www.redfin.com/city/30818/TX/Austin/filter/property-type=house,min-beds=3"}
  ],
  "maxResults": 20
}

Input

Name	Type	Default	What it does
startUrls	array	empty	Redfin search URLs to collect, each with its own filters. Up to 20.
cities	array	Austin, TX	Built-in cities: Austin, TX, Seattle, WA, San Francisco, CA, Los Angeles, CA, Chicago, IL.
zipcodes	array	empty	Five-digit US ZIP codes.
searches	array	empty	Redfin search paths or URLs, e.g. /city/16832/CO/Denver.
propertyType	string	empty	Optional home type added to every search: house, condo, townhouse, apartment, multi-family, land, mobile.
sold	boolean	false	Homes sold in the last year instead of homes for sale.
includeHistory	boolean	false	Opens each home's page (up to maxDetails) and adds history, tax_history and last_sold.
maxDetails	integer	3	Most home pages to open per run when includeHistory is on, 1-200.
maxPages	integer	1	Result pages per search, 1-10. A page usually lists 20 or more homes.
maxResults	integer	50	Most homes per run across all searches, 1-200.
requestDelaySecs	number	1	Pause between page requests, 0.5-10 seconds.

When you give no city, ZIP code, search path or URL, the run searches Austin, TX. As soon as you give any of them, only your searches run. Homes that appear in more than one of your searches are returned once.

Input recipes

Pasted search URL. Open redfin.com, search a city, ZIP code, neighborhood or county, set your filters (price range, beds, baths, home type, square feet, year built and so on), then copy the URL from the address bar. Paste it as is; you do not need to remove page numbers or tracking parameters:

{
  "startUrls": [
    {"url": "https://www.redfin.com/zipcode/78704/filter/property-type=house,min-price=400k,max-price=900k"},
    {"url": "https://www.redfin.com/neighborhood/121/WA/Seattle/Ballard"}
  ],
  "maxPages": 2,
  "maxResults": 100
}

Several ZIP codes in one run:

{"zipcodes": ["78704", "78702", "78745"], "maxPages": 2, "maxResults": 150}

Condos only in two built-in cities:

{"cities": ["Seattle, WA", "San Francisco, CA"], "propertyType": "condo", "maxResults": 60}

Any other city by its Redfin path. Copy the part after redfin.com from a Redfin city page:

{"searches": ["/city/16832/CO/Denver"], "maxResults": 40}

Sold comps with sale prices and tax history. Sold search cards show the last list price; includeHistory adds the actual sale price and date from each home's page:

{"zipcodes": ["98107"], "sold": true, "includeHistory": true, "maxDetails": 10, "maxResults": 10}

Some states, Texas among them, do not make sale prices public. There the sale events keep their dates but have a null price.

Daily market monitor. Save any of the inputs above as an Apify task and schedule it daily. Compare runs by listing_key to see new, changed and removed homes.

Output example

Each home is one dataset item with listing_key, url, price_usd, address, city, state, beds, baths, sqft, property_type, images, source and scraped_at. With includeHistory on, the first maxDetails homes also carry history, tax_history and last_sold.

Example record from a sold search in Seattle's 98107 ZIP code with includeHistory on (collected 2026-10-20; history and tax rows shortened to three each):

{
  "listing_key": "redfin.com:12449",
  "url": "https://www.redfin.com/WA/Seattle/6042-Seaview-Ave-NW-98107/unit-404/home/12449",
  "price_usd": 950000,
  "address": "6042 Seaview Ave NW #404",
  "city": "Seattle",
  "state": "WA",
  "beds": 2,
  "baths": 2.0,
  "sqft": 1587,
  "property_type": "house",
  "images": [

  ],
  "source": "redfin.com",
  "scraped_at": "2026-10-20T04:05:00+00:00",
  "history": [
    {"date": "2026-06-02", "event": "Sold (MLS) (Closed) NWMLS as Distributed by MLS Grid #2491905", "price": 950000},
    {"date": "2026-05-05", "event": "Pending NWMLS as Distributed by MLS Grid #2491905", "price": null},
    {"date": "2026-03-27", "event": "Listed (Active) NWMLS as Distributed by MLS Grid #2491905", "price": 975000}
  ],
  "tax_history": [
    {"year": 2026, "property_tax_usd": 11334, "land_additions_usd": 157200},
    {"year": 2025, "property_tax_usd": 9359, "land_additions_usd": 157200},
    {"year": 2024, "property_tax_usd": 9577, "land_additions_usd": 157200}
  ],
  "last_sold": {"date": "2026-06-02", "price": 950000}
}

Without includeHistory, records stop at scraped_at.

Field notes:

• listing_key is stable for the same home across runs, so you can join or deduplicate on it.
• price_usd, beds, baths and sqft are numbers; any of them is null when the listing does not show it.
• property_type is the home type of your search when it filters on one type (propertyType, or a pasted URL with one home type). Redfin's search data labels most homes as single-family, so without a home type filter this field usually reads house, condos included. Filter by type when the type matters.
• images lists the photo links shown in the search results (often the first few photos; empty when the card has none).
• history[].event is the event label as Redfin shows it, including its source (for example Sold Public Records).
• scraped_at is the time the run collected the data, in UTC.

You can download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML, or read it from the Apify API in your own code.

Use it as a Redfin API

Every run can be started over the Apify API with the same JSON input shown above, from Python, JavaScript, Zapier, Make, n8n or a plain HTTP call, and the results read back from the run's dataset. Saved tasks and schedules make it a hands-off Redfin listings feed.

FAQ

How fresh is the data? Every run reads Redfin at the moment it starts. Nothing is cached between runs.

Which Redfin URLs can I paste? Search result pages: city, ZIP code, neighborhood and county searches, with or without filters. A single home page is not a search and is rejected with a clear message. Paste the search that lists it instead.

Do my Redfin filters carry over? Yes. The filters in the pasted URL are kept on every page of that search. If you also set propertyType or sold, they are added to each search.

What if my city is not in the built-in list? Paste its Redfin search URL in startUrls, or put its path in searches.

How many homes can I get? Up to 200 per run and up to 10 pages per search. For a whole metro area, split it into ZIP codes or neighborhoods and schedule several runs.

What price do sold homes show? Sold search results show the last list price. Turn on includeHistory to get the sale price and date in last_sold and history.

Why does a sold event have no price? Redfin hides some prices, for example very old sales and sales in states that do not publish sale prices, such as Texas. Those events keep their date and have a null price.

Does it return rentals? It returns homes for sale and sold homes. Monthly rents are never reported as sale prices.

Does it return agent phone numbers or emails? No. It returns the listing data shown in Redfin search results.

What happens if a request fails? Temporary errors are retried. A search page that does not exist is skipped and logged. A ZIP code search that finds no homes stops the run with an error, so a mistyped ZIP code is not reported as an empty success.

Can I combine inputs? Yes. Pasted URLs, cities, ZIP codes and search paths can all be used in the same run.

For help, contact Apify Support and include the run URL.

Pricing

You pay per home returned plus a small start event for each run. The start event is charged per GB of memory, so the default 512 MB run is one start event. See the Actor's Pricing tab on Apify for current rates. includeHistory does not add a charge per home page, but it makes runs slower. Total run cost depends on your limits and your Apify plan. Start with a small maxResults value and check the run cost before scheduling larger collections.
