Rightmove Property Scraper

What is Rightmove Property Scraper?

Rightmove Property Scraper lets you extract UK property listings from rightmove.co.uk at scale, helping you build valuation models, source investment stock, monitor a local market week over week, and pull agent contact lists without a single manual copy and paste.

Type a place name and it does the rest. No location codes to look up, no cookies, no login, no browser automation.

• 🏠 Cover the whole UK market, not just one channel: homes for sale, homes to rent, new builds, and commercial units for sale or to let, all from the same Actor and the same output shape.
• 📍 Map every result instantly: latitude and longitude on every row, so results drop straight into a map, a GIS layer, or a distance calculation.
• 📐 Compare on price per square foot: Rightmove publishes floor area as a display string like 996 sq. ft. and never as a number. Rightmove Property Scraper parses it, converts square metres to square feet so the column is consistent, and computes pricePerSqFt for you. No competing Rightmove Actor returns this.
• ☎️ Build agent lists: branch name, brand, phone number, and profile URL on every listing.
• 🔎 Search anywhere, however you have it: a town or city, a full UK postcode, an outcode like NW3, or a Rightmove search URL pasted straight out of your browser.
• 💷 Pay for rows, not for starting: a flat $0.50 per 1,000 properties and no per-run start fee, which is what most Rightmove Actors charge on top of their per-result price.

Rightmove has no public API. Its website shows you 25 listings at a time behind a paginator, and its filters reset every time you leave the page. Rightmove Property Scraper turns any Rightmove search into a clean, typed dataset you can sort, join, and model.

What data does Rightmove Property Scraper extract?

• 🏷 Full display address and the outward postcode recovered from it (displayAddress, outcode)
• 📍 Latitude and longitude (latitude, longitude)
• 💷 Numeric price, currency, and frequency (price, priceCurrency, priceFrequency)
• 🏷 Display price and its qualifier, so Guide Price and Offers Over are not silently flattened into an asking price (displayPrice, priceQualifier)
• 📅 Weekly rent alongside monthly rent on rental listings (displayPriceSecondary)
• 📐 Floor area parsed to a number in square feet, plus the original string (sizeSqFt, displaySize)
• 📊 Price per square foot, computed (pricePerSqFt)
• 🛏 Bedrooms and bathrooms (bedrooms, bathrooms)
• 🏘 Property type and sub type (propertyType, propertySubType)
• 📜 Tenure, freehold or leasehold (tenure)
• ✍️ Listing summary and the agent's key feature bullets (summary, keyFeatures)
• 🚩 New build, commercial, auction, student, retirement, and shared ownership flags
• 🕐 When it was added or reduced, first listed date, and last update (addedOrReduced, firstVisibleDate, listingUpdateDate, listingUpdateReason)
• 🔑 Let available date and whether tenant fees apply, on rentals (letAvailableDate, feesApply)
• ☎️ Agent brand, branch, branch ID, phone number, and profile URL
• 📸 Every image URL, plus image, floorplan, and virtual tour counts
• 🔗 The canonical rightmove.co.uk listing URL (propertyUrl)
• 🧾 Full provenance: which of your locations produced the row, the resolved Rightmove location ID, and the exact search URL

Address, price, coordinates, bedrooms, agent name, and listing URL came back on 100% of rows in QA. Floor area is best effort, because Rightmove itself only publishes it when the agent supplied it. See the measured coverage table below.

• Agent contacts: branch, phone, and profile URL per listing
• Map data: address, coordinates, outcode, price

How much does it cost to scrape Rightmove?

A flat $0.50 per 1,000 properties. One event, one price. There is no per-run start fee, and duplicates are removed before billing.

Properties	Cost
1,000	$0.50
10,000	$5.00
100,000	$50.00

Most Rightmove Actors on the Apify Store charge between $0.70 and $2.99 per 1,000 and add a separate charge every time a run starts, which hurts most if you schedule small runs often. Rightmove Property Scraper charges for rows and nothing else, so a daily 200-row market watch costs ten cents.

Measured coverage

Measured 2026-09-01 across all five channels, 133 rows, every request through the same Apify datacenter proxy the Actor uses in production.

Field	For sale	To rent	New homes	Commercial sale	Commercial rent
Address, price, beds, agent, URL	100%	100%	100%	100%	100%
Coordinates	100%	100%	100%	100%	100%
Agent phone	100%	100%	100%	100%	100%
Floor area and price per sq ft	76%	56%	92%	59%	93%
Outward postcode	72%	48%	84%	59%	76%

Floor area and outward postcode are best effort by design. Rightmove only publishes a floor area when the listing agent supplied one, and only ends the display address with a postcode on some listings. Neither is invented: the field is null when Rightmove does not have it, so an average over the column stays honest.

Limits

• About 1,000 results per search. Rightmove serves roughly the first 1,000 matches of any one search and refuses deeper offsets. To go past that, split the search: narrow by price band, bedroom count, property type, or use several smaller locations instead of one large region. The Actor tells you in the log when a search has more matches than it can reach.
• Search results only. This Actor reads Rightmove's search listing, which is where the fields above live. It does not open each individual property page, which is what keeps it fast and cheap.
• Sold house prices are a separate Rightmove product and are not covered here.
• Floor area is not always published. See the coverage table.
• UK only. Rightmove's overseas channel is not supported.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Rightmove?

Rightmove Property Scraper only reads pages that Rightmove serves publicly to any visitor, with no login and no cookies. It collects property listing data, not personal data: the contact details it returns are the business phone numbers estate agents publish on their own listings. You are responsible for how you use the data and for your own compliance with Rightmove's terms and with UK and EU data protection law. Apify's ethical scraping guide is a good starting point.

Can I use Rightmove Property Scraper as an API?

Yes. Every Actor on Apify is an API endpoint. Start a run, poll it, and read the dataset over HTTP. See the Apify API docs.

Can I use this in Python?

Yes, with apify-client:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("cirkit/rightmove-property-search-scraper").call(
    run_input={"searchLocations": ["Manchester"], "maxItems": 200}
)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["displayAddress"], item["price"], item["pricePerSqFt"])

Can I integrate Rightmove Property Scraper with other apps?

Yes. Apify connects to Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, Slack, Airbyte, GitHub, and any webhook, so results can land in a spreadsheet or a CRM the moment a run finishes.

How do I schedule Rightmove Property Scraper to run automatically?

Use Apify Schedules to run it daily or weekly. A common pattern is a nightly run with addedWithin: "last 24 hours" and a webhook, which gives you a feed of everything new in your patch each morning.

Why did I get fewer results than expected?

Three usual causes. Your Maximum properties cap was reached. Your filters were narrower than you thought, so check searchUrl on any row and open it in a browser to see exactly what was searched. Or the search has more than about 1,000 matches, which is Rightmove's own ceiling, and the log will say so.

What happens if nothing matches my search?

The run still finishes successfully and pushes a single row with resultStatus: "no_results" and an explanation in summary, so a scheduled job can tell "nothing matched today" apart from "the scraper broke". Every other row carries resultStatus: "ok".

How do I search a specific area precisely?

Use a full postcode with Search radius set to This area only or Within 1/4 mile. For a broader sweep, use an outcode like M20 or a town name with a larger radius.

Can I get sold prices or full property descriptions?

Not from this Actor. It reads Rightmove's search results, which carry the summary and key features but not the full description. Ask and it can be added.

Can I get a field that is not listed?

Probably. If Rightmove exposes it on the search results page, it can be added. Open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab.
