monitoringMode
: This option when turned on will only scrape newly added property listings compared to previously scraped properties by this actor. When you keep this option on, it will scraper full list for the first time and then in next run, it will scrape only newly found incremental data. -
retrieveUnitNumber
: This provides you Unit number of property as well. Turn this on, only if you have Dubai Property Unit Finder actor with you. -

πΈ Pricing Model & Usage Logic
This actor uses a tiered pay-per-event pricing model, with usage tracked and charged based on the number of properties processed and additional multipliers. Charges are triggered at specific usage thresholds and events.
π’ Charge Events & Tiers
The actor uses a tiered pricing model based on the number of properties processed. Each tier has a specific charge event and rate per 1,000 properties:
π» Cost Efficiency as You Scale: The tier-based pricing model is designed to reduce your cost per property as your usage increases. The more properties you process, the lower your per-unit cost becomes, helping keep your overall costs under control as you scale up to higher volumes.
Starter Tier (starter-tier-1K
)
For the first 25,000 properties processed, the cost per 1,000 properties is $2 USD. This tier is ideal for small to medium jobs and ensures a low entry cost for initial usage.
Growth Tier (growth-tier-1K
)
For properties processed from 25,000 up to 50,000 the cost per 1,000 properties drops to $1.6 USD. This tier rewards higher volume usage with a reduced rate, making it cost-effective for scaling up.
Scale Tier (scale-tier-1K
)
For properties processed from 50,000 up to 100,000 the cost per 1,000 properties is $1.2 USD. This tier is designed for large-scale operations, offering further discounts as your volume increases.
Enterprise Tier (enterprise-tier-1K
)
For properties processed above 100,000 the cost per 1,000 properties is $1 USD. This tier is for enterprise-level usage, providing the lowest rate for very high-volume processing.
Each charge event is triggered automatically as your processed property count crosses into the next tier. The actor tracks usage and applies the correct rate for each tier, ensuring transparent and predictable billing.
These pricing tiers are applied on a monthly basis, and your usage count resets at the start of each new month. This ensures you always start fresh and only pay for what you use each month.
Example:
- Scraping 200,000 properties in a month:
- $2 per 1K properties for the first 25,000 properties ($50)
- $1.6 per 1K properties upto 50,000 properties ($40)
- $1.2 per 1K properties upto 100,000 properties ($60)
- $1 per 1K properties above 100,000 properties ($100)
- Total: $250
β‘ Additional Usage Parameters (Multipliers)
The actor may apply additional usage multipliers based on your input settings. These do not directly charge you extra, but they affect how quickly you use up your monthly quota. The more features you enable, the faster your included usage is consumed.
- π Residential Proxy Usage: If you use a residential proxy, an additional 5x usage multiplier will apply. This is due to the higher cost and complexity of residential proxy traffic.
- π§ Memory Usage: If you run the actor with more than 256 MB of memory, you will be charged an additional usage multiplier. For example, running at 512 MB will double your usage cost.
- π·οΈ Full Property Details: Enabling
fullPropertyDetails
will increase your usage multiplier by 5x, as it requires scraping more data per property. - π’ Retrieve Unit Number: Enabling
retrieveUnitNumber
will increase your usage multiplier by 2x, as it requires additional data extraction per property. - π Monitoring Mode: Enabling
monitoringMode
adds 2 propery count for retrival of tracked propery and 4 properies count as usage storing and tracking new property, as it requires additional logic and storage for incremental scraping. - π΅οΈ Enable Delisting Tracker: Enabling
enableDelistingTracker
adds 1x to your usage multiplier. - π Add Empty Tracker Record: Enabling
addEmptyTrackerRecord
doesn't add any value to multiplier. But it causes flat 1 property count usage (without multiplier) when tracker record is getting pushed.
These multipliers are cumulative. For example, if you enable both monitoringMode
and enableDelistingTracker
, your usage for each property will be multiplied by additional 3x.
π‘ Tip: For best cost efficiency, run this actor on 256 MB memory. The actor is highly optimized for this setting, and using more memory will increase your additional usage charges. Only increase memory if you have a specific need.
π’π Finding Unit Number (Unit No.)
This actor is now directly integrated with the Dubai Property Unit Finder actor! π
With this integration, you can:
- Apply a filter or select all properties from a particular building on Bayut.
- Simply turn on the
retrieveUnitNumber
option in your input. - Instantly get the unit numbers for all properties in that buildingβin one go! Super easy and powerful. π’β‘οΈπ’
No more manual lookups or separate runs. Just enable the option and let the integration do the work for you!
Note: The Dubai Property Unit Finder actor has its own pricing and billing, which is separate from this Bayut scraper. When using integration mode, both actors will be billed independently according to their respective pricing models.
βDeduplication handled
If multiple list urls contains overlapping results, they will get deduplicated within same run data.
βLimitations
Since Propertyfinder allows only 100K properties per listing/search result, you might want to break down your listing urls into smaller area if it has more than 100K results. Good News is that even if multiple list urls contains overlapping results, they will get deduplicated within same run data.

π Identifying delisted properties
This actor provides you monitoring mode configuration using which you can get only incremental updates about newly added properties. In case, you also want to identify which properties are delisted from platform, you can use any of the following techniques with the help of this actor.
-
Running Always in full scraper mode : Run this actor always in full scrape mode and cross check the new incoming batch of data with your existing database. If any property that exists in yoru database but not in newly scraped data batch, that means it's not listed anymore
-
Use Key Value Store generated by scraper : If your are monitoring very large batch of data and you don't want to scrape everything all the time, this method involves bit of technicality but achieves the goal efectively. Apify has storage feature called Key-value store. When you run this scrape, this scraper stores every single property in key value store along with timestamp in
propertyfinder-properties
store. Inside this store, key is property id itself and value is timestamp like this{ lastSeen : '2023-11-02T05:59:25.763Z'}Whenever you run this scraper, it will update the timestamp against particular id if it finds property on the platform. e.g. if we have 2 proprties with id
prop1
andprop2
and we scraped them both on November 1, key value storage would look like this :prop1 -> { lastSeen : '2023-11-01T05:59:25.763Z'}prop2 -> { lastSeen : '2023-11-01T05:59:25.763Z'}Now if you run this scraper again on December 1 and prop1 is not on the platform anymore but prop2 is still there, key value storage would change like this :
prop1 -> { lastSeen : '2023-11-01T05:59:25.763Z'}prop2 -> { lastSeen : '2023-12-01T05:59:25.763Z'}That means if any property has
lastSeen
less than latest batch you loaded, that property is delisted now. You can directly iterate through whole Key value storage using Apify key value storage API to identify this. Please refer to this API documentation to do the same. Please remember store name generated by this scrape will bepropertyfinder-properties
.Alternatively, you can iterate through your existing database active properties and use this API to identify listing status.
For this approach to work, it's important that you enable this feature via
enableDelistingTracker
(Enable Delisting tracker) input.
