# Changelog of Google Maps Real Estate Scraper — Agent & Broker Leads (`blackfalcondata/google-maps-real-estate-lead-scraper`) Actor - **URL**: https://apify.com/blackfalcondata/google-maps-real-estate-lead-scraper/changelog.md - **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/blackfalcondata/google-maps-real-estate-lead-scraper.md ## Changelog ### 0.1.41 - 2026-09-15 #### Improved - **Results now appear while the search is still running.** With several search terms, the results for each term are saved as soon as that term is done, instead of all at once at the end. #### Fixed - **A clear message when a region or country is used as the location.** When such a search finds nothing near the location's centre, the run now says so and suggests searching a city or town, instead of pointing at your filters. ### 0.1.40 - 2026-09-15 #### Fixed - **A large search radius now searches around your location first.** With a big radius, a run could cover only the far edge of the area and miss the location itself, sometimes returning nothing. The search now starts at the location and works outwards. - **A long search now shows that it is still running.** Runs with many search terms print a short progress line every minute until the results are ready. ### 0.1.39 - 2026-09-14 #### Improved - **Faster runs when review counts are fetched again.** Asking again for results that came back without a review count no longer holds up the rest of the search, so runs finish sooner. The results themselves are unchanged. ### 0.1.38 - 2026-09-14 #### Improved - **Many more results now include their review count.** Google leaves the review count out of part of its search results, so the Reviews field was often empty. The actor now asks again for those results, and most of them come back with the count. Runs can take a few seconds longer. ### 0.1.37 - 2026-09-14 #### Fixed - **Phone numbers of some chain-store listings now use the same international format as every other result** (for example +15122952437 instead of +1 512-295-2437), and those listings now include the street. Their city, state, postal code and country are still not available as separate fields; the full address is in the address field. ### 0.1.36 - 2026-09-14 #### Fixed - **Review counts are the real review count.** The Reviews field was showing how many photos a business has. It now shows the number of reviews, or stays empty when that number is not available for a business in a given search. Because the values change, the first run after this update can mark many businesses as updated. - **Minimum reviews now leaves out businesses without a review count** instead of letting them through. If that removes every result, the run says how many businesses had no review count. - **Today's hours now include businesses that are open 24 hours.** They used to come back empty. - **A run whose searches could not be completed now fails instead of finishing successfully with no results.** When only some of your searches could not be completed, the run keeps what it found and warns that the results may be incomplete. - **Searches recover from a slow connection** instead of giving up on the search. ### 0.1.35 - 2026-09-14 #### Changed - **Language now changes the results.** Setting Language (for example "de" or "ja") used to leave the results in English. Category names, today's opening status and addresses now come back in that language, and so does the business name where Google has a translated one. Phone numbers, ratings, websites, the Claimable flag and every other field are filled just as they are in English. Language still defaults to English, so runs that do not set it are unchanged. - **A run whose filters removed every result now says so.** When businesses were found but none were returned, the run now says why instead of finishing silently: it lists your own filters, and notes that this actor only returns businesses that list a website. It also says when a Category filter has to be written in the chosen language. - **The Output tab has an "All fields" view**, and the Leads view gained Web presence, Facebook page and Social page columns. #### Fixed - **A run that nears its time limit stops early enough to finish cleanly.** The last business could still be processing when the time ran out, and the run then lost its notifications, app export and the change tracking the next run relies on. - **Searches in a few less common countries are more reliable** when a request has to be retried. ### 0.1.34 - 2026-09-13 #### Changed - **Country accepts every country.** The Country list offered only 10 countries. It now lists every country, and the 10 you could pick before still work. - **Leave Country empty and it follows your location.** Country used to default to United States, so a search in another country could be biased toward a US place. When you leave it empty, the country is now taken from the location you enter ("Cairo" searches Egypt, "Austin, TX" the United States). Runs and saved tasks that set a Country keep it and behave as before. #### Fixed - **Locations outside the chosen country are searched where you asked.** A location such as "Egypt, Cairo" or "Dublin, Ireland" with Country set to United States could resolve to a small street of a similar name in the United States, so the run searched that street and found almost nothing. It now searches the city you named. Ambiguous names on their own ("Paris", "Springfield") and locations inside the chosen country resolve as before. - **A Facebook or Instagram page is not treated as a website.** Build 0.1.33 (2026-09-03) dropped this fix: a business whose only web presence is a social page counted as having a website. It no longer does, and the page ships as the social link, with the hasFacebook, websiteKind and socialPagePlatform fields on every record. ### 0.1.33 - 2026-09-03 #### Fixed - **Runs finish far sooner.** Contact enrichment ran on one business at a time while everything else waited, so a large run could take over half an hour and the biggest ones could reach the platform time limit and end with nothing. Enrichment now overlaps. The leads you get, the order they arrive in, and what you are charged are unchanged. - **A capped run no longer stops halfway.** The run start was counted against your maximum charge twice, so a run with a spend limit quietly delivered about half the leads it should have. - **Comma-separated search terms work.** Entering "roofer, landscaper, remodeler" as one term searched for that whole phrase and found nothing. Each term is now searched separately, and the "query" field is accepted as an alternative to "search terms" instead of being ignored. - **A too-broad location now says so.** Entering a country or large region searched only a small area around its centre, with no explanation. The run now tells you the location is wider than your search radius and what to enter instead. ### 0.1.0 — 2026-06-04 - Initial release. Find local businesses with **no website** on Google Maps, geo-accurate to a search radius you control. Each lead includes name, category, address, phone, rating, reviews, a 0–100 lead score, and a NEW / UPDATED / UNCHANGED change tag for re-runs. Pre-billing filters (rating, reviews, category, phone) and notifications (Telegram / Slack / Discord / WhatsApp / webhook) included.
