Metrocuadrado [Just 💰$1.5] — Colombia Real Estate

What does Metrocuadrado do?

Metrocuadrado Scraper extracts structured property listings from metrocuadrado.com across Colombia — price, price-per-m², area, rooms, stratum, photos, GPS, and agent contact (phone & WhatsApp). Filter by city, neighborhood, price, area, or a precise lat/long radius, paste any Metrocuadrado search URL, and run incrementally to capture only new or changed listings. An optional Agencies mode aggregates the companies behind the listings for lead generation.

Key features

• 💵 Structured pricing — full sale or rental price plus a computed price-per-square-metre for every listing, so you can rank and compare value across a market instantly.
• 📞 Phone & WhatsApp contact — every listing carries the advertiser's phone number, WhatsApp number, and the owner type (builder, agency, or owner) — structured fields, not text-mined.
• 🔔 Notifications — Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp Cloud API, and generic webhook out of the box. Pair with incremental for daily new-listing alerts without pipeline glue.
• 🔗 Paste-mode — build the search you want on metrocuadrado.com, copy the result-page URL, and paste it — each URL's operation, property type, city and neighborhood are read from the URL. Add several; results are merged and deduplicated by listing id.
• 📦 Compact mode — AI-agent and MCP-friendly payloads with core fields only.
• 🧹 Empty-field stripping — drop null, empty-string, and empty-array fields from each record before push. Smaller payloads for AI agents and dashboards that already handle missing fields gracefully.
• ♻️ Incremental mode — recurring runs emit and charge only for listings that are new or whose tracked content changed. First run builds the baseline; subsequent runs emit only NEW / UPDATED / REAPPEARED records (UNCHANGED + EXPIRED opt-in). Saves 80–95% on daily monitoring.
• 📤 Export anywhere — Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify Console, or stream live via the Apify API and integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, n8n, …).
• 🔌 MCP connectors — export your results into Notion via Apify's MCP connectors — a clean run-summary page, no glue code. Opt-in via the App connector field; deterministic field-mapping, no AI. Built on Apify's connector framework, so more destinations open up as their catalog grows.

What data can you extract from Metrocuadrado?

Each result includes Core property fields (listingId, adId, url, portalUrl, title, operation, propertyType, and propertyState, and more), detail fields when enrichment is enabled (description, descriptionMarkdown, and descriptionLength), contact information (contactPhone and contactsCount), and company metadata (companyId). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as null, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Enable detail enrichment in the input to get richer fields such as full descriptions, company metadata, and contact information where the source provides them.

Input

The main inputs are a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema.

Key parameters:

• operation — Sale or rental listings. (default: "sale")
• propertyTypes — One or more property typologies. Each is scanned independently. (default: ["apartamento"])
• cities — City slug(s), e.g. "bogota", "medellin", "cali". Accents/spaces are normalized. Leave empty if you only use Start URLs.
• neighborhoods — Neighborhood slug(s) to narrow the search within the chosen cities, e.g. "chico", "el-poblado".
• startUrls — Paste Metrocuadrado search-result URLs (e.g. https://www.metrocuadrado.com/apartamentos/venta/bogota/chico/) to scrape those exact searches. Each URL's operation, property type, city and neighborhood are read from the URL; the filters below still apply.
• mode — Listings (default) or Agencies — aggregate the companies behind the listings (id, owner type, listing volume, contact phone, areas served) for lead generation. (default: "listings")
• maxResults — Maximum records to return (0 = full coverage). In agencies mode this caps the number of companies. (default: 50)
• minPrice — Minimum listing price.
• maxPrice — Maximum listing price.
• minAreaM2 — Minimum floor area in square metres.
• maxAreaM2 — Maximum floor area in square metres.
• rooms — Filter by number of bedrooms (any of the selected counts).
• bathrooms — Filter by number of bathrooms.
• garages — Filter by number of garages/parking spaces.
• stratum — Filter by socioeconomic stratum (1–6).
• propertyState — New or used.
• centerLat — Optional radius filter — center latitude (decimal, e.g. 4.6097 for Bogotá). Combine with Center Longitude + Radius to keep only listings within the radius.
• centerLng — Radius filter — center longitude (decimal, e.g. -74.0817).
• radiusKm — Keep only listings within this many kilometres of the center point. Requires Center Latitude + Center Longitude; listings without coordinates are kept.
• descriptionMaxLength — Truncate description to this many characters. 0 = no truncation. (default: 0)
• compact — Output only core fields (for AI-agent/MCP workflows). (default: false)
• excludeEmptyFields — Drop null, empty-string, and empty-array fields from each record before output. Smaller, cleaner payloads for AI agents and dashboards. (default: false)
• incrementalMode — Track new/changed/expired listings across runs. Requires a State Key. (default: false)
• stateKey — Stable identifier for this tracking universe (e.g. "co-bogota-sale-apartamento").
• ...and 21 more parameters

Incremental fields

When incremental mode is on, each record also carries:

• changeType — one of NEW, UPDATED, UNCHANGED, REAPPEARED, EXPIRED. Default output covers NEW / UPDATED / REAPPEARED; set emitUnchanged: true or emitExpired: true to opt into the others.
• isRepost, repostOfId, repostDetectedAt — populated when a new listing matches the tracked content of a previously expired one. Set skipReposts: true to drop detected reposts from the output.

How to scrape Metrocuadrado

1. Go to Metrocuadrado in Apify Console.
2. Configure the input.
3. Set maxResults to control how many results you need.
4. Enable includeDetails if you need full descriptions, contact info.
5. Click Start and wait for the run to finish.
6. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Use cases

• Extract property data from Metrocuadrado for market research and competitive analysis.
• Track pricing trends across regions and categories over time.
• Monitor new and changed properties on scheduled runs without processing the full dataset every time.
• Research broker and agency profiles, provider coverage, and market distribution.
• Use structured location data for regional analysis, mapping, and geo-targeting.
• Feed structured data into AI agents, MCP tools, and automated pipelines using compact mode.
• Export clean, structured data to dashboards, spreadsheets, or data warehouses.

How much does it cost to scrape Metrocuadrado?

Metrocuadrado uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

• Run start: $0.0005 per run
• Per result: $0.0015 per property record

Example costs:

• 10 results: $0.015
• 25 results: $0.038
• 100 results: $0.15
• 200 results: $0.3
• 500 results: $0.75

Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of properties that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions.

Example setup: 200 properties per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Costs scale linearly with the number of properties.

Churn rate	Full re-scrape run cost	Incremental run cost	Savings vs full re-scrape	Monthly cost after baseline
5% — stable niche query	$0.30	$0.02	$0.28 (95%)	$0.46
15% — moderate broad query	$0.30	$0.05	$0.26 (85%)	$1.36
30% — high-volume aggregator	$0.30	$0.09	$0.21 (70%)	$2.71

Full re-scrape monthly cost at the same cadence: $9.02. First month with incremental costs $0.75 / $1.62 / $2.92 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage (compute and proxies) is billed separately by Apify based on actual consumption. Incremental runs consume less on result processing, though fixed per-run overhead stays the same.
