## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## US Real Estate Scraper

Scrape property listings across **Zillow** (for-sale) and **Zumper** (rentals) in a single Actor run. Get prices, beds, baths, sqft, photos, coordinates, amenities, and more — all normalized into one consistent schema.

### Why This Actor?

Most real estate scrapers cover only one site. This Actor **aggregates multiple sources** into a unified output schema, so you can compare for-sale and rental listings without juggling different data formats.

- **Zillow** — #1 US real estate site (280M monthly visits, 55%+ market share). For-sale listings with full property details.
- **Zumper** — Fast-growing rental platform (6.5M monthly visits). Rental listings with pricing, amenities, pet policies, and ratings.

### Features

- **Multi-site aggregation** — Zillow + Zumper in one run, unified schema
- **For-sale + Rental** — Covers both buying and renting markets
- **Rich data** — 20+ fields per listing including GPS coordinates, images, amenities
- **Fast** — HTTP-only extraction (no browser), typical run completes in under 10 seconds
- **Price & property type filters** — Narrow results by price range and property type
- **Graceful degradation** — If one site fails, the others still return results

const run = await client.actor("lentic_clockss/us-real-estate-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
