MercadoLibre Real Estate Scraper

Scrape real estate listings from MercadoLibre's inmuebles/property verticals: Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Uruguay, Peru and the other Latin American markets on the same platform. Give it one or more search-result URLs and get structured data for every listing: price, expensas (maintenance fee), rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, surfaces, full description, all photos, coordinates, seller and property code.

It walks the result pages for you, opens every listing, and uses residential proxies (country matched to the site) with automatic session and IP rotation whenever MercadoLibre shows its "suspicious traffic" page.

Input

Field	Type	Description
startUrls	array	Search URLs, e.g. https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.ar/departamentos/venta/bsas-gba-sur/lomas-de-zamora/. Listing URLs (https://departamento.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-...) work too.
maxItems	integer	Max listings to return in total (default 200). Pagination stops when reached.
scrapeDetails	boolean	Open every listing page for the full field set (default true). Off = search-result fields only.
includeAllImages	boolean	Fetch the full photo gallery for listings with more than 5 photos (default true).
maxPages	integer	Result pages to walk per search URL, 48 listings each (default 10).
proxyConfiguration	object	Defaults to Apify residential proxies; the country is picked from the site (.com.ar → AR, .com.mx → MX, ...).

Build the search in your browser (city, property type, operation, filters), copy the URL and paste it into startUrls.

rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, totalArea and coveredArea are numbers when the listing states a single value; for developments that advertise ranges ("3 a 4 ambientes") they are null and the raw text stays in attributes. With scrapeDetails: false you get the search-result subset: title, price, currency, city, region, country, sellerName, datePosted, image, url.

Common uses

• Real estate market research across Latin America
• Cross-country price comparison
• Feeding a property search app or a price-tracking/market-alert pipeline
• Lead generation for agencies and investors

Notes

• MercadoLibre blocks datacenter IPs. Keep the default residential proxy, or provide your own residential proxy URLs.
• Free-tier runs are capped at 10 listings for evaluation. Paid runs return the full maxItems you request.
