SUUMO Scraper - Japan Real Estate Listings API

What does SUUMO Scraper do?

SUUMO Scraper is a Japan real estate scraper for SUUMO.jp — the leading Japanese property portal. It extracts used and new condominiums (中古・新築マンション), houses (一戸建て), land (土地), and rentals (賃貸) from Tokyo, Osaka, and other prefectures.

Paste a SUUMO search or detail URL, or set a location path such as tokyo/sc_shinjuku with a propertyType, then download structured listings as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML.

This Actor works as a practical SUUMO API alternative: it reads public search (SRP) and detail (LDP) HTML over lightweight HTTP, so you get prices, floor plans, land/building area, station access, fees, and photos without maintaining your own browser stack.

Why scrape SUUMO.jp?

• Japan market research — track asking prices and inventory for Tokyo, Osaka, and other cities
• Investment & proptech — feed CRM, pricing models, or dashboards with fresh sale and rent data
• Lead generation — collect publicly shown agency contact blocks from listing detail pages
• Competitive monitoring — watch new condo launches, house supply, and rental listings without manual browsing
• Data export — pull SUUMO property data into Sheets, warehouses, or your own API

How to scrape SUUMO

1. Open SUUMO Scraper in Apify Console.
2. Set location (e.g. tokyo/sc_shinjuku) and propertyType, or paste SUUMO start URLs (category is auto-detected).
3. Choose max listings / max pages and whether to open detail pages.
4. Proxy is optional — direct HTTP works for typical SUUMO runs; enable Apify RESIDENTIAL + JP if you need IP diversity.
5. Click Start, then export results from the Dataset tab.

How much does it cost to scrape SUUMO?

This Actor uses Pay per event pricing. You pay for:

Event	Price
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.005 per start (scaled by run memory: one event per GB, minimum one)
result (apify-default-dataset-item)	$2.50 / 1,000 results ($0.0025 per SUUMO listing)

Platform usage (compute, proxy if enabled, etc.) is also billed to the user on top of event charges.

Example (illustrative): 1 start + 1,000 listings ≈ $0.005 + $2.50 in event fees, plus platform usage for the run.

Tip: set a max total charge on the run if you want a hard spending cap. Start with maxItems 10–50 while testing field coverage.

Input

Open the Input tab for the full schema. Main fields:

Field	Purpose
startUrls	SUUMO search or detail URLs (auto-detect propertyType)

Is it legal to scrape SUUMO?

Our scrapers are ethical and do not extract private user data that is not shown on public listing pages. They only extract what SUUMO has chosen to display publicly. You should still comply with SUUMO terms, applicable laws (including Japan’s APPI and GDPR where personal data appears), and only scrape when you have a legitimate purpose. If unsure, consult your lawyers.

FAQ

How do I scrape SUUMO for sale listings in Tokyo?

Set location to a Tokyo area path (e.g. tokyo/sc_shinjuku) and choose a sale propertyType such as chuko_mansion, ikkodate, or tochi. Or paste a /ms/chuko/, /ikkodate/, or /tochi/ search URL.

How do I scrape SUUMO rentals (賃貸)?

Set propertyType to chintai, or use a URL under https://suumo.jp/chintai/.

How do I scrape SUUMO new condominiums (新築マンション)?

Set propertyType to shinchiku_mansion or open a /ms/shinchiku/ search URL.

How do I scrape SUUMO land (土地) listings?

Set propertyType to tochi or use a /tochi/ URL. Land records include landArea / landAreaSqm when present.

Do I need a SUUMO API key?

No. This Actor scrapes the public SUUMO website and returns structured property data — useful when you need a SUUMO data API without an official partnership.

Can I export SUUMO listings to Google Sheets or Excel?

Yes. Download the Dataset as Excel/CSV, or use Apify integrations and the Dataset API to push results into Sheets, webhooks, or your backend.

What location format should I use for SUUMO scraping?

Use SUUMO path segments such as tokyo/sc_shinjuku (prefecture + city slug). You can also paste a full search URL in startUrls and skip location.

What if a SUUMO scrape returns zero results?

Check that the location/URL is valid for that category, try with or without proxy, and inspect Key-Value Store records ERROR_SUMMARY / OUTPUT for fetch or parse issues.

Tips for better SUUMO scraping

• Prefer propertyType over legacy channel.
• Enable scrapeDetails when you need admin fees, orientation, agent text, or richer galleries.
• Sale categories and rent use different page templates — keep type and URL consistent.
• Use a polite requestDelayMillis (e.g. 600–1200) for larger crawls.
• Start with small maxItems to validate fields and cost before scaling.
