Korea Real Estate Scraper: MOLIT Apartment Prices (실거래가)

Get official South Korean property transaction prices as clean, English JSON / CSV / Excel. Every row is a real reported contract from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT) real transaction price disclosure system, not a listing or an asking price.

What you can use it for

}

Rent rows have lease_kind (jeonse or monthly_rent), deposit_krw, monthly_rent_krw, contract_type (new / renewal), contract_term, and previous deposit / rent for renewals.

Prices are converted from the official unit (10,000 KRW) into plain KRW. Korean names are kept next to a romanized version (Revised Romanization), so you can join on either.

Pricing

Pay per result: $2 per 1,000 transactions. You only pay for rows saved to the dataset after filters, not for API calls.

Good to know

• Reporting lag: Korean law requires reporting within 30 days of the contract, so the latest 1 to 2 months keep filling in. Re-run recent months for complete counts.
• Privacy masking by the source: apartment floors are given but not unit numbers; some lot numbers for houses and land are partially masked (1***). This is how the government publishes the data.
• 2026 administrative changes: the source re-keys history under current district codes (for example the Jeonnam-Gwangju merger and new Hwaseong-si districts), and this Actor follows it. Inputs like Gwangju or 광주광역시 still work.
• Building names are reported by the source in Korean; building_name is a mechanical romanization, not an official English brand name.

FAQ

Is there an English API for South Korean real estate prices? Yes. This Actor wraps the official MOLIT real transaction price (국토교통부 실거래가) open data and returns English field names, romanized district names and numbers in KRW, so you do not need to read Korean or register for a data.go.kr key.

How do I get Seoul apartment sale prices for one district? Put the district in regions (for example Gangnam-gu, Seoul or 서울 강남구), choose the apartment sales type and a month range. Every reported contract in that period comes back as one row.

Does it include jeonse and monthly rent (전세, 월세)? Yes. Choose the rent types to get deposits and monthly rent for apartments, officetels, villas and houses.

Are these asking prices or real deals? Real reported contracts, not listings. For current listings use a portal scraper; for what actually sold, use this.

Can I use it for price analysis, AVM models or investment research? Yes. The output is consistent month to month, so it works for time series, price per square meter maps and machine learning features.
