## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## 🏠 Rightmove Scraper — UK Property Data

Scrape **Rightmove**, the UK's #1 property portal, **for sale or to rent** — and get clean, structured listings: address, price, bedrooms, bathrooms, property type, **estate agent name and phone**, coordinates, images and the listing URL. Search by UK location name or paste a Rightmove search URL.

Built for property research, **estate-agent lead generation**, market analysis and price monitoring across the UK. Export to JSON/CSV/Excel, run on a schedule, call via API, or connect to Make, Zapier or n8n.

### 🔎 What is the Rightmove Scraper?

Give it UK locations (e.g. "London", "Manchester") or paste Rightmove search URLs, choose for sale or to rent, and it returns matching listings as structured rows — paginated to your requested limit. Perfect for building a clean UK property dataset or a list of active listings and the agents behind them.

#### What data does it extract?

- **Address** and **listing URL**
- **Price** (amount + display, e.g. "Offers over")
- **Bedrooms** and **bathrooms**
- **Property type** (detached, flat, terraced…)
- **Summary** description
- **Estate agent** name and **phone number**
- **Added / reduced** date and first-listed date
- **Latitude / longitude**
- **Main image** and image count

### ⬇️ Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `location` | array | UK place names, e.g. `London`. Resolved automatically. |
| `searchUrls` | array | Rightmove search-results URLs to scrape exactly. |
| `channel` | string | `BUY` (for sale) or `RENT` (to rent). |
| `maxResults` | integer | Max listings per search. Default `50`. |

#### Example input

```json
{
  "location": ["London", "Manchester"],
  "channel": "BUY",
  "maxResults": 100
}
````

### ⬆️ Output

One record per listing:

```json
{
  "id": 123456789,
  "address": "Baker Street, London, NW1",
  "price_amount": 750000,
  "price_currency": "GBP",
  "price_display": "£750,000",
  "price_qualifier": "Guide Price",
  "transaction_type": "BUY",
  "bedrooms": 2,
  "bathrooms": 1,
  "property_type": "Apartment",
  "summary": "A bright two-bedroom apartment moments from Regent's Park...",
  "agent": "Acme Estates",
  "agent_phone": "020 1234 5678",
  "added_or_reduced": "Added on 12/06/2026",
  "first_visible_date": "2026-06-12T09:00:00Z",
  "latitude": 51.5237,
  "longitude": -0.1585,
  "image": "https://media.rightmove.co.uk/.../property.jpeg",
  "num_images": 14,
  "featured": false,
  "url": "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/123456789",
  "search": "London"
}
```

### 💡 Use cases

- 🎯 **Estate-agent lead generation** — build a list of agents with phone numbers.
- 🏠 **Market research** — analyze asking prices by area and property type.
- 📈 **Price monitoring** — schedule runs and track reductions over time.
- 🤖 **Automation** — push new listings to Slack/Sheets via Make/Zapier/n8n.

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need an API key or login?** No — just provide locations or search URLs.

**Can I scrape rentals?** Yes — set `channel` to `RENT`, or paste a to-rent URL.

**Can I scrape an exact search?** Yes — paste the Rightmove URL into `searchUrls`.

**Do I get the agent's phone?** Yes — agent name and contact phone where listed.

**Do I get coordinates?** Yes — latitude and longitude for mapping.

**How many listings can I get?** Set `maxResults` (Rightmove caps a search at ~1000).

**How does pricing work?** Pay per listing returned. No subscription.

**Is it legal?** It collects publicly available listing data. Scrape responsibly, respect robots/ToS, and follow UK GDPR for any personal data.

### ⚙️ How it works

Rightmove protects its data behind a bot challenge, so this actor uses a privacy-hardened stealth browser through UK residential IPs to load the site like a real visitor, then reads Rightmove's own search results — returning clean, structured JSON instead of fragile HTML. It resolves your locations, paginates automatically and de-duplicates as it goes. The same input shape works for a quick check or a deep multi-area pull — only `maxResults` changes.

### 👥 Who uses UK property data?

Property data is valuable to investors, agencies, proptech teams and analysts. An investor compares asking prices across boroughs; an agency monitors competitor stock and the agents behind it; a proptech app enriches its map with fresh inventory; an analyst tracks supply and price reductions. Because every record is plain JSON with consistent fields, it drops straight into a spreadsheet, CRM, BI tool or LLM pipeline with no custom parsing.

### 📤 Export, schedule & integrate

Every run is saved to a dataset you can export to **JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS**, or pull through the **Apify API**. Wire it into **Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack** or your **own database**, run it on a **schedule** to catch new listings, and call it from AI agents through the **Apify MCP server**.

### 💡 Tips for best results

- Paste a Rightmove search URL to capture your exact filters (price, beds, radius).
- Run sale and rent separately to keep two clean datasets.
- Schedule a daily run and diff by `id` for a new-listings alert.
- The agent name + phone make every listing a warm lead.

### ❓ More FAQ

**How fresh is the data?** It is fetched live on each run.

**Can I run it automatically?** Yes — use Apify Schedules (cron).

**Are duplicates removed?** Listings are de-duplicated within each run.

**Which export formats?** JSON, CSV, Excel, XML and RSS, plus the Apify API.

**Can AI agents use it?** Yes — via the Apify API and MCP server.
