Crexi Real Estate Scraper

Extract commercial real estate listings from Crexi.com — the largest US marketplace for commercial property. Get property names, addresses, prices, square footage, property types, listing URLs, and high-resolution images, ready for analysis, lead generation, market research, or CRM imports.

The scraper covers all 51 US states (50 + DC) and every commercial asset class — Office, Retail, Industrial, Multifamily, Land, Hotel, Hospitality, Mixed Use, Special Purpose, Healthcare, Self Storage, Mobile Home Park, Senior Housing, Student Housing.

Data path (Aug 2026): Crexi moved its search behind session-gated frontend pages — anonymous browsers no longer receive the /assets/search call. This actor now calls Crexi's public search API directly (api.crexi.com/assets/search), which needs no cookies, no browser, and no proxy. The browser fallback path remains only for resilience if the API is ever blocked.

What you get

For each property listing:

Field	Description
property_id	Unique Crexi asset identifier
name	Listing title (e.g., "Multi-Tenant Office Building")
property_type	Asset class(es) (e.g., Office, Retail, Land)
address	Full street address
city	City name
state	Two-letter state code
zip_code	Postal code
price	Asking / sale price (formatted with $ and commas)
square_footage	Building or unit size
images	Array of listing photos (thumbnail URL from the API)
property_url	Direct link to the Crexi detail page
description	Listing description (when available)
brokerage	Listing brokerage name
listing_status	Status (e.g. On-Market)
investment_type	Investment classification (e.g. Value Add)
latitude / longitude	Geocoordinates (when disclosed)
source	Origin (api)

Empty fields are omitted from each record so the dataset stays clean.

Input

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
maxProperties	Integer	100	Maximum properties to return across all locations / filters.
scrapeDetails	Boolean	false	When true, enriches each listing via the public detail API (/assets/{id}): details key/value map, full description, net_operating_income, subtypes.
propertyTypes	Array	[]	Pick one or more from the 14 asset classes. Empty = all types.
locations	Array	[]	Pick one or more US state codes (e.g., CA) or names (e.g., California). Empty = nationwide.
minPrice	Integer	—	Minimum asking price in USD.
maxPrice	Integer	—	Maximum asking price in USD.
proxy	Object	optional	NOT required — the primary path uses Crexi's public API and works from datacenter IPs. Only needed if you want the browser fallback path (Apify Residential, US).

FAQ

Do I need a proxy? No. The primary data path calls Crexi's public search API directly and works from datacenter IPs with no proxy, cookies, or browser. The browser fallback (only used if the API is unreachable) does require the RESIDENTIAL group.

Can I filter by city? Filtering is at the state level (locations: ["FL"]). To narrow by city, run a state-level scrape and post-filter on the city field.

Why does propertyTypes sometimes return mixed types? Crexi tags many listings with multiple asset classes — for example, a building can be both Office and Land. The scraper returns properties that include the requested type in their tag list, and always applies a strict client-side confirmation so every record actually contains the requested type and state.

Why are some listings priced "Negotiable" or missing a number? Crexi lets sellers hide the asking price. Records without a numeric price are still emitted, with the price field omitted, when no price filter is set. If minPrice or maxPrice is provided, listings without a numeric price are excluded so the price filter remains accurate.

Is there a run timeout to configure? No. The primary path (public API) typically finishes in seconds; the actor manages its own internal safety budget — there is nothing to configure.

What if the Crexi API is ever blocked? The actor falls back to the browser path (up to three residential sessions, when a proxy is configured). If all attempts fail it exits successfully and writes a single record { "type": "crexi_blocked", "reason": "...", "scrapedAt": "..." } so downstream pipelines can detect the block and re-run.

How current is the data? Live — every run hits Crexi at request time. Schedule the actor on the Apify platform for daily / hourly refreshes.

Can I scrape closed / sold / off-market properties? The actor returns currently active for-sale listings on Crexi. Sold or off-market properties are not exposed publicly.

Limitations

• Only publicly listed properties are scraped — no auth-gated or off-market data.
• Crexi can change its API or page structure; if a particular field disappears the actor will continue but may emit fewer columns.
• City-level URL filtering is not supported (state level is). Filter on city after the fact.
• Sold / closed listing history is not in scope.
