## 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).

# README

## EstateSales.net Scraper

![banner](https://i.imgur.com/0xnEBWz.png)

EstateSales.net (estatesales.net) is a US marketplace for estate sales and marketplace listings. This actor collects structured sale detail data from list URLs and direct detail URLs.

### Introduction

The EstateSales.net scraper starts from list or detail URLs. For list URLs, it follows the site result flow, paginates when applicable, and collects sale detail records. For detail URLs, it extracts the listing ID from the URL and fetches the item directly.

### Use Cases

- **Lead generation**: Build structured datasets of estate sale and marketplace listings.
- **Market monitoring**: Track newly published sales, featured listings, and seller activity.
- **Competitive research**: Compare organizers, sale types, locations, and publishing cadence.
- **Analytics pipelines**: Feed BI tools, dashboards, and internal data workflows.

### Input

Provide the following fields:

- `startUrls` (array, required): EstateSales.net list URLs or detail URLs.
- `maxItems` (integer, optional): Maximum number of detail items to extract per original start URL.
- `proxyConfiguration` (object, optional): Apify proxy settings.

Notes:

- List URLs such as `/DC/Washington/20002` or similar search flows are supported.
- Detail URLs such as `/MD/Bethesda/20817/marketplace/77359` are supported directly.
- `maxItems` is enforced per original start URL.

### Input Examples

**1) Start URLs**

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.estatesales.net/DC/Washington/20002"
    },
    {
      "url": "https://www.estatesales.net/MD/Bethesda/20817/marketplace/77359"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
````

### Output

Each dataset item contains fields like:

```json
{
  "id": "77359",
  "orgId": 119171,
  "name": "Treasures on Beech Avenue",
  "saleType": "Marketplace",
  "isMarketplaceSale": true,
  "url": "https://www.estatesales.net/MD/Bethesda/20817/marketplace/77359",
  "address": null,
  "city": "Bethesda",
  "state": "MD",
  "zipCode": "20817",
  "latitude": 38.998,
  "longitude": -77.137,
  "companyName": "Example Company",
  "companyWebsite": null,
  "companyPageUrl": "https://www.estatesales.net/companies/MD/Bethesda/20817/119171",
  "companyLogoUrl": null,
  "phoneNumbers": [],
  "terms": null,
  "descriptionHtml": "<p>Example description</p>",
  "pictureCount": 5,
  "mainImageUrl": "https://picturescdn.estatesales.net/example.jpg",
  "firstPublishedAt": "2026-04-06T10:00:00Z",
  "firstStartAt": "2026-04-07T13:00:00Z",
  "lastEndAt": "2026-04-07T20:00:00Z",
  "showAddressAfter": null,
  "dates": [],
  "isPublished": true,
  "isLocallyFeatured": false,
  "isRegionallyFeaturedThisWeek": false,
  "isNationallyFeaturedThisWeek": false,
  "postalCodeId": 1234,
  "primaryMetroAreaId": 567
}
```

The scraper stops when `maxItems` is reached per original start URL or when no more result items are available.

### Why use the EstateSales.net Scraper?

- **Supports both entry points**: Works with list URLs and direct detail URLs.
- **Structured output**: Returns normalized JSON records ready for analysis.
- **Per-URL limits**: `maxItems` is enforced per original source URL.
- **Stable collection flow**: Handles list and detail pages in a way that fits the site structure.
- **Easy to use**: Designed to fit standard Apify actor input and output flows.

### FAQ

- **Can I start from a detail URL?**\
  Yes. Detail URLs are supported directly.

- **Can I start from a list URL?**\
  Yes. The actor follows the list flow and processes result items from there.

- **How many items can it extract?**\
  Controlled by `maxItems` per source URL.

- **Do I need proxies?**\
  Proxies are recommended for larger runs and better stability.

- **What if EstateSales.net changes their website structure?**\
  The actor may require updates to keep extraction stable.
