Rightmove Property Listings Scraper

Export public Rightmove property listings with prices, addresses, bedrooms, agent details and listing URLs for UK property research. Supply a filtered Rightmove search URL to collect sale, rental, new-home or commercial search results. Download a spreadsheet or use the dataset from your own app.

This scraper reads search-result data, not full individual property pages. Fields depend on what Rightmove exposes in each search.

Quick start

1. Open Rightmove, apply your location and property filters, and copy the search URL ending in /find.html.
2. Paste it into Rightmove search URLs. Start with a small limit.
3. Click Start, then open the dataset when the run finishes.

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/find.html?locationIdentifier=REGION%5E87490&maxBedrooms=2&sortType=6"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 1,
  "includeImages": true
}

Ready-to-run examples

Choose an existing public example and review its input before starting:

• London homes for sale — Sale listings with prices, bedrooms, agents and available images.
• Manchester rentals — Rental search results for a focused local comparison.
• Property listings without image arrays — A smaller tabular export with the image array disabled.

What you get

• Property records: listing IDs, links, asking prices, property types, bedrooms and bathrooms.
• Location and agents: visible addresses, postcode signals, coordinates, agent names, branch details and phone numbers when available.
• Listing context: summaries, features, available dates, image links and source search URLs.
• Repeatable exports: duplicate listing IDs are removed within a run. Compare separate runs in your own workflow to identify changes.

Who is it for?

• Property researchers comparing asking prices and local supply.
• Investors and analysts building sale and rental datasets.
• Estate agencies reviewing publicly listed inventory and agent activity.
• PropTech teams sending structured property records to spreadsheets, dashboards or databases.

Input settings

Setting	JSON key	What it does
Rightmove search URLs	startUrls	HTTPS search URLs ending in /find.html, up to 100 per run.
Resume search URLs	resumeSearchUrls	Remaining URLs from RUN_CHECKPOINT. A non-empty list replaces fresh URLs.
Maximum listings	maxItems	Total saved-listing cap, from 1 to 10,000.
Maximum pages per search	maxPagesPerSearch	Per-search page cap, from 1 to 100.
Include image URLs	includeImages	Include the images array. Defaults to true.

Use the filters and sort order in the Rightmove URL. There is no separate location-name search or property-detail lookup. The Actor connects directly and has no proxy setting.

The form sets maxItems to 20 and prefills two pages. The schema default for pages is five. To make API calls and saved tasks predictable, set both limits explicitly as in Quick start. Existing raw-input fallback limits are 25 listings and five pages when those values are absent.

Advanced API inputs may also use searchUrls, which is combined with startUrls unless a non-empty resumeSearchUrls is supplied. When resuming, deduplicate against earlier exports by listingId. A partially saved page can be visited again.

Output data

Each dataset row represents one listing. Missing values are null or empty arrays where appropriate. This synthetic, abbreviated example illustrates the shape, not a collected property:

{
  "listingId": "EXAMPLE_ID",
  "url": "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/EXAMPLE_ID",
  "displayPrice": null,
  "price": null,
  "propertyType": null,
  "bedrooms": null,
  "address": null,
  "agentName": null,
  "images": [],
  "sourceSearchUrl": "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/find.html?locationIdentifier=REGION%5E87490"
}

Fields	Meaning
listingId, url, title	Listing identity, public link and address-based title.
displayPrice, price, priceQualifier, currencyCode	Displayed and numeric asking price, qualifier and currency.
propertyType, bedrooms, bathrooms	Available property characteristics.
address, postcode, outcode, latitude, longitude	Address and available location signals. Postcode fields are inferred from the visible address.
agentName, agentBranchName, agentPhone, agentUrl	Public agent details when supplied by the search result.
listingType, summary, features	Listing channel, summary and available feature labels.
images, mainImage	Image URLs. Disabling images empties images but a supplied main image may remain.
dateAdded, firstVisibleDate, listingUpdateDate, listingUpdateReason	Available listing dates and update context. Not a complete change history.
premiumListing, featuredProperty	Available promotion flags.
numberOfImages, numberOfFloorplans, numberOfVirtualTours	Media counts, not downloaded floorplans or tours.
sourceSearchUrl, scrapedAt	Originating search and collection timestamp.

RUN_SUMMARY in the key-value store describes per-search outcomes. A deadline stop can also write RUN_CHECKPOINT for resuming remaining work.

Download your results

Open your run's dataset, choose Export and select JSON, CSV or Excel. JSON keeps nested fields together. CSV and Excel are useful when you want to review the records in a spreadsheet.

See Apify's download and export guide for the available formats and field options.

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. The start event is a one-time run charge after input validation.

The result event charges for each property listing saved to the dataset. Summary and checkpoint records are not listing rows. A failed or partial run can still incur its start charge and charges for listings already saved.

Use maxItems and maxPagesPerSearch to bound the work.

See the live Pricing tab for current rates and discounts.

Tips for best results

• Copy the filtered search URL. Homepages, individual listings and location landing pages are not supported inputs.
• Start with one page. Confirm the fields meet your needs before increasing the volume.
• Keep searches focused. Apply location, bedroom and price filters on Rightmove first.
• Use smaller exports. Turn off the image array when you only need tabular data.
• Compare by listing ID. Keep earlier datasets if you want to detect price or availability changes.

Limits and caveats

• Only public search-result data is collected. Private accounts, saved searches, messages and agent-only tools are not accessed.
• Individual property pages, free-text location lookup, full property descriptions, floorplan files and historical sold-price records are not collected.
• Fields can vary by search type and page layout. Missing agent details or dates are not filled with guesses.
• Rightmove can block requests or change its pages. A run can return partial results when one search fails. The current implementation fails a run if it saves no listings, including an empty search.
• Listing availability and prices can change after collection. Results are not a guaranteed complete inventory.
• This is an independent scraper, not an official Rightmove API.

Automation and integrations

Save your settings for next time

Once you have an input that works for you, save it as an Apify task. This keeps your settings together so you can use them again without filling in the form from scratch.

Run on a schedule

Need fresh results regularly? You can schedule the Actor or a saved task to run at a time that suits you.

Each scheduled run collects the data again. If you want to compare results or highlight changes, add that step in your own workflow.

Send results to your other tools

Use n8n, Make or Zapier to connect this scraper to the rest of your workflow. For example, you could pass its results to an AI assistant or add records to a spreadsheet. Follow the Apify integration guides for your chosen tool.

For a custom connection, an Apify webhook can notify your app when a run finishes or fails. Your app can then fetch the results or handle the failure.

API usage

Want to collect this data from your own app or automation? The examples below send input to the scraper and show how to collect its results.

The Node.js and Python examples wait for the run to finish before reading its results. The cURL example starts the run and returns its details. Wait for that run to finish, then use its defaultDatasetId to fetch the results.

For setup instructions, see Apify's JavaScript client guide, Python client guide and Actor runs API reference.

cURL

curl -X POST 'https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/fetch_cat~rightmove-property-listings-scraper/runs' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \

Node.js

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('fetch_cat/rightmove-property-listings-scraper').call({
  "startUrls": [

  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 1,
  "includeImages": true
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Python

import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"])
run = client.actor("fetch_cat/rightmove-property-listings-scraper").call(run_input={
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/find.html?locationIdentifier=REGION%5E87490&maxBedrooms=2&sortType=6"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 1,
  "includeImages": True

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

MCP and AI agents

You can ask your AI assistant to collect data with Rightmove Property Listings Scraper and help you work with the results. The scraper returns the data, and your assistant can then summarize it, compare records or prepare notes.

Connect your assistant through the Apify MCP server. MCP gives your assistant a way to find this scraper, run it and read the results. Follow the official setup and sign-in guide for your app.

Easier setup with an Apify plugin

If you use a supported coding assistant, the official Apify plugin can set up the connection for you. It connects your assistant to Apify and includes instructions for common tasks. Follow the guide for your particular app.

Use Apify AI in Console

Prefer to keep everything in Apify? Open Apify AI in Console and ask it to find Fetch Cat's Rightmove Property Listings Scraper. You can describe the data you want and ask questions about the results.

Apify AI is currently in beta. It asks for confirmation before starting an Actor, and normal run charges apply.

Choose your assistant

• Claude and Claude Code (Anthropic): Apify setup guide.
• ChatGPT and Codex (OpenAI): Apify setup guides.
• Grok Bot (xAI): Apify plugin guide.
• Gemini CLI (Google): MCP server setup guide. Use the server URL below with the HTTP configuration supported by Gemini CLI.

Connect just this scraper

To keep your setup focused on this scraper, add this server configuration to a compatible MCP client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fetch_cat/rightmove-property-listings-scraper"
    }
  }
}

Sign in to Apify when your client asks. If your client uses a Bearer token instead, follow its setup guide and keep the token in its secure configuration. Configuration formats vary by app, so use the linked guide if your client needs a different format.

Use Apify's general server

Already connected to the general Apify MCP server at https://mcp.apify.com? You can use it to find this scraper without adding another server. Ask your assistant to use Rightmove Property Listings Scraper by Fetch Cat, or give it the identifier fetch_cat/rightmove-property-listings-scraper.

Your assistant can check the available settings and retrieve the results from the returned run. If the run is still working, it should follow that run rather than start it again. Both connection options use Apify's hosted service.

Example requests

• “Collect ten listings from this public Rightmove sale search and summarize the available asking prices.”
• “Get up to twenty properties from this Rightmove rental search and compare bedroom counts and asking rents.”
• “Export listings from these two Rightmove search URLs without image arrays, then prepare a spreadsheet of the available agent details.”

Normal Apify charges apply. Check the live Pricing tab before asking your assistant to run a larger batch.

Pay with x402

If your AI agent has a funded wallet, it can pay for Apify usage through x402. This experimental option lets an agent use Apify without a conventional account.

Apify AGI provides a prepaid API token with a spending cap after payment. Your agent can use that token to run this scraper through the Apify API or an authenticated MCP connection.

Some MCP setups also support paying for each request directly. That is a different payment option, so check the official guide for its availability.

Follow the official guide for wallet setup, supported payment options and current terms. Apify handles the payments. Keep wallet keys and payment tokens in your agent's secure configuration.

Other ways for agents to pay

Apify also supports MPP for prepaid access through AGI and Skyfire for eligible Actors. If your agent already uses one of these, see the agentic payment guide to choose the right setup.

FAQ

Can I scrape Rightmove sale and rental listings?

Yes. Paste public sale or rental search URLs ending in /find.html. New-home and commercial search paths are also accepted. Results depend on the data exposed by that search.

Is this a Rightmove API alternative?

It provides structured public search data through Apify's API. It is not an official Rightmove API and does not provide private data or every field on a property detail page.

Can I track new listings or price changes?

Repeat the same search and compare saved datasets using listingId. Scheduling and change detection belong to your workflow, not a built-in alert service in this scraper.

Can I export CSV or Excel?

Yes. Open the dataset and choose an export format. JSON is useful for arrays such as features and images.

What happens when a search has no results?

The current implementation fails when no listings are saved across the run. If other searches produce useful records, those remain in the dataset. Check RUN_SUMMARY to distinguish empty searches from failed ones.

How do API and AI-agent calls get charged?

They use the same Actor events as Console runs. Review the live Pricing tab and use a small explicit result limit.
