Patrice Besse Real Estate Scraper

Extract property listings from patrice-besse.com — the French agency specialized in châteaux, hôtels particuliers, and character properties — straight into structured JSON. Point this Actor at any patrice-besse.com search results page, such as the Paris & surrounding area search, and get back price, address, surface area, room counts, full description, photo gallery and agent contact for every matching property. Try it directly from the Input tab, no coding required, and run it on a schedule or trigger it via the Apify API to keep a dataset of listings continuously up to date.

Why use this scraper?

• Market monitoring — track new luxury and character-property listings across Paris, the Île-de-France, or any other patrice-besse.com region without manually refreshing the site.
• Lead generation — feed structured property data into a CRM, spreadsheet, or internal dashboard.
• Comparative analysis — export price-per-m², location, and characteristics data for market research.
• Automation-friendly — combine with Apify's scheduler and integrations (Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, webhooks) to get notified of new listings automatically.

Because it runs on the Apify platform, you also get automatic retries, proxy rotation to avoid IP blocking, and run monitoring — all without managing any infrastructure yourself.

How to scrape patrice-besse.com listings

1. Click Try for free (or Start) and open the Input tab.
2. Paste the search results URL(s) you want to crawl into Start URLs — it's prefilled with the Paris search, but any patrice-besse.com search page (other regions, or recherche-bien-immobilier-france/ for all of France) works the same way.
3. Optionally adjust Crawl property detail pages, Max properties, and Proxy configuration.
4. Click Start and watch the results appear in the Dataset tab as the run progresses.
5. Export the results in your preferred format once the run finishes.

Cost estimation

This Actor uses the lightweight BeautifulSoupCrawler (plain HTTP, no browser), so runs are fast and cheap. A search page such as the Paris one (~100 listings) plus all of its detail pages typically completes in a couple of minutes on the free Apify plan's compute allowance. Disable Crawl property detail pages for an even cheaper, summary-only run when you don't need the full description or photo gallery.

Tips

• Leave Max properties at 0 to scrape everything matching a search, or set it low while testing your setup.
• If you only need a quick market snapshot (price, location, thumbnail), turn off Crawl property detail pages to roughly halve the number of requests.
• Add multiple regional search URLs to Start URLs in a single run to cover several areas at once.
