Input example

1{
2    "listUrls": [
3        {
4            "url": "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/ab10.html"
5        }
6    ],
7    "fullScrape": true,
8    "monitoringMode": false,
9    "deduplicateAtTaskLevel" : false
10}

Understading monitoring mode :

• fullScrape : If you turn this setting on, it will take more time to scrape. However, it will fetch additional details like features, number of bathrooms, property sub type etc.

• monitoringMode : This option when turned on will only scrape newly sold property listings compared to previously scraped properties by this actor. In case, existing property is sold again having new transaction, it will appear again in the output.

• deduplicateAtTaskLevel : By default scraper will deduplicate and monitor successive updates at account level. In case, you have configured many tasks from this actor and you want de-duplication / successive updates at task level, enble this setting. Enabling this means that two different tasks are treated as two isolated scraping when it comes to monitoring mode.

❓Limitations

Since Rightmove allows only 1000 properties per listing/search result, you might want to break down your listing urls into smaller area if it has more than 1K results. Good News is that even if multiple list urls contains overlapping results, they will get deduplicated within same run data.

💰 How much will be the scraping cost you?

This scraper runs in two modes. One is initial scraping mode and another is monitoring mode. Initial scraping really depends on amount of properties you are scraping. In our experience, monitoring whole UK for any new sale properties costs around $25 per run and for amonitoring whole UK for any new rental properties costs around $10 per run. Notably, this cost is within monthly credits you get when you are on $49 Starter Plan.
