🎯 What does Housing.com Scraper do?

Housing.com is one of India's leading property portals, with listings across every major city and locality. This actor turns any city (or search URL) into a structured dataset you can download or feed into your own tools.

Give it a city (and buy or rent) — or a Housing.com URL — and it will:

• 🔎 Harvest listings across the entire city, locality by locality
• 🏢 Capture property name, BHK configuration and property type
• 💰 Return the price range (min / max, in INR) and a formatted price
• 📍 Include the locality and detailed address
• 📞 Add the seller / developer name and phone
• 🗓️ Include the posting date and property features
• 🧹 Deliver clean, deduplicated, structured records — no HTML, no clutter
• ⬇️ Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML or via API in one click

No login, no browser extensions, no manual copy-paste.

❓ FAQ

Do I need a Housing.com account or API key? No. Just provide a city or a Housing.com URL.

Can I scrape both buy and rent? Yes — choose buy (for sale) or rent.

Does it include the seller's phone? Yes — the seller / developer name, type and phone are included where the portal exposes them.

Does it cover a whole city or just one page? A whole city — the actor harvests listings across the city's many localities and deduplicates them.

What is the price range? For projects with multiple configurations, priceMin and priceMax give the range in INR, plus a formatted priceDisplay.

Are results deduplicated? Yes. Each listing is uniquely identified and appears once per run.

What formats can I export? JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, RSS and XML — via the dashboard or the API.

How do I keep data fresh? Schedule the actor to run on the interval you need; each run returns the current live listings.

📌 Tips for best results

• Start with one city. Confirm the fields look right, then add more cities or raise maxItems.
• Use rent for rental analytics. Switch the service to build a rentals dataset.
• Paste URLs for specific searches. Apply filters on Housing.com, then paste the URL for a targeted pull.
• Schedule for freshness. Listings change daily — a scheduled run keeps your data current.
