## Pricing

from $1.90 / 1,000 properties

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

## Crexi Scraper — Commercial Properties for Sale & Lease

> **Disclaimer:** Unofficial tool — not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Commercial Real Estate Exchange, Inc. or its affiliates. Data is read from publicly accessible property search results only. No login. You are responsible for complying with applicable law (including GDPR where personal data appears) and the site’s terms. No warranty on accuracy or availability. Provided for informational and research use.

**Crexi scraper** for US **commercial real estate** **for sale** and **for lease**. Each row is one property: asking price or lease rate, size, brokerage, address, and whether a sale card lists an offering memorandum. Export the dataset as JSON. Use it as a **Crexi API alternative** from **Python**, **Node.js**, **cURL**, or **Apify MCP**.

**Best for:** sale and lease comps in one city, brokerage names from public search cards, and a scheduled check that saves only new property ids.

| Actor | Role |
| :--- | :--- |
| Crexi Scraper ◄── you are here | US commercial sale and lease |
| [LoopNet Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/loopnet-scraper) | US commercial sale, lease, and auctions |

### When to use this Actor

- **City, state, county, or ZIP** — `Austin, TX`, `TX`, or `78701`.
- **A filtered search you already built** — Paste a search URL that includes a city, state, county, or ZIP.
- **One property** — Paste a single property URL.
- **New-listing monitor** — Schedule the same search. Later runs save property ids that were not stored last time. A quiet tick writes zero rows.
- **Broker names** — Turn on broker names when you want the public name and brokerage. The default row does not call that extra record.

### When not to use this Actor

- **Email, phone, or a downloaded offering memorandum** — Those are not on the public search record. This Actor does not log in. A sale row can say that a memorandum or flyer exists. It does not download the file.
- **The other US commercial marketplace** — For LoopNet sale, lease, and auction cards, use [LoopNet Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/loopnet-scraper).
- **A national dump in one run** — Cap `maxItems`. Split by city or state instead of paging the whole country.

### Key features

- **One property per row** — Sale and lease search cards. Default **256 MB**. No proxy.
- **Price or lease rate** — Asking price on sales. Rate, suite count, and rentable size on leases.
- **Address and brokerage** — Street, city, state, ZIP, coordinates, and the brokerage on the card.
- **Offering memorandum flag** — `hasOfferingMemorandum` is true or false on sale cards. The PDF stays on the site.
- **Monitor** — Named key-value store of property ids already saved for that search. New runs sort by activation date.

### Input

| Field | Required | Default | What it does |

| Start URLs | No | empty | Search or property URLs. Overrides the fields above. |
| Max properties | No | 25 | Cap across all searches. Maximum 500. |
| Include broker names | No | off | Public broker name and brokerage. No email or phone. |
| Monitor mode | No | off | Save only property ids not seen on the previous run of this search. |

- Schedule a morning run in monitor mode and keep only property ids that were not in yesterday’s file.
- Feed address, price, and brokerage into an internal comps sheet. For the other major US commercial marketplace, continue with [LoopNet Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/loopnet-scraper).

### Integration examples

Replace `APIFY_TOKEN`. The slug below is the Store name.

#### Node.js

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client";

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor("crawloop/crexi-scraper").call({
  location: "Austin, TX",
  transaction: "sale",
  maxItems: 25,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);
```

#### Python

```python
import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"])
run = client.actor("crawloop/crexi-scraper").call(run_input={
    "location": "Austin, TX",
    "transaction": "lease",
    "maxItems": 25,
})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
print(len(items))
```

#### cURL

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/crawloop~crexi-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"location":"Austin, TX","transaction":"sale","maxItems":10}'
```

### FAQ

**Does this download the offering memorandum?**
No. Sale rows include `hasOfferingMemorandum` when the public card says a memorandum exists. The file requires a login, and this Actor does not log in or charge for a download.

**Are broker emails included?**
No. Broker names, when you turn them on, are the public name and brokerage. Email and phone are not on that record.

**Does a row include cap rate or NOI?**
No. Cap rate and NOI are not on the public search card this Actor saves.

**Why was my search URL skipped?**
A link that only contains a place id cannot be sent as a public search filter. Use a city, state, county, or ZIP, or a search URL that already includes one of those.

**What does monitor mode skip?**
Property ids already stored for that same search. Change the city or the transaction and it is a new cursor. A run with no new ids writes zero rows.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
