Zillow Agents Scraper

How it works

This actor allows you to scrape real estate agent profiles from Zillow.com and extract important details such as agent name, reviews, contact information, and other relevant data. The scraper is designed to help you gather comprehensive data on real estate agents, which can be useful for market research, contact building, or analyzing agent performance.

Features

• Multiple Search Queries: Supports scraping based on multiple start URLs (just copy and paste the link/url from Zillow.com site), formatted as: https://www.zillow.com/professionals/real-estate-agent-reviews/99501/
• NEW: You can now also provide direct agent profile URLs, for example: https://www.zillow.com/profile/soldbymickie
• Comprehensive Data Extraction: Agent name, contact info, business details, ratings, sales statistics, current listings, past sales, and reviews
• Bulk Processing: Handle multiple agent profiles in one run
• Robust Error Handling: Built-in retry logic and error recovery

How to Use

1. Set Up: Ensure you have an Apify account and access to the Apify platform.
2. Configure Proxy Settings: (Optional) For enhanced reliability, configure proxy settings, as Zillow employs anti-scraping measures.
3. Provide Start URLs: Copy the link of the agent listings or agent profile from Zillow.com and paste it into the scraper. Make sure the URLs point to agent listings or agent profile pages.
4. Run the Scraper: Execute the scraper and obtain the extracted data in your preferred format, such as JSON, CSV, Excel, or others as supported by Apify.

Here's an example of how to set up a search for agents or a direct agent profile:

        {
            "url": "https://www.zillow.com/profile/soldbymickie"
        },

        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    }
}

Input Options

• Start URLs (startUrls): URLs of agent listings or agent profiles to start scraping from. This is an array of strings, where each string is a Zillow URL.
• Max Concurrency (maxConcurrency): Maximum number of pages that can be processed at the same time. Default is 50.
• Min Concurrency (minConcurrency): Minimum number of pages that will be processed at the same time. Default is 1.
• Max Request Retries (maxRequestRetries): Number of times the scraper will retry a failed request before giving up. Default is 100.
