Finn.no Scraper — Norway Real Estate, Cars, Jobs & Marketplace Data (No API)

Extract listings from Finn.no, Norway's largest classified-ads marketplace — used by 4 million Norwegians every month (about 75% of the population). Scrape real estate for sale, used cars, full-time jobs and second-hand marketplace items across every Norwegian region, with price, price-per-m², GPS coordinates, photos, agent/dealer details, mileage, ownership type and more in clean structured JSON. Finn.no publishes 35,000+ new listings every day, and this scraper taps directly into its internal JSON APIs — fast, no browser, no HTML parsing, no API key, no login.

🏆 Why this Finn.no scraper?

4 categories in one Actor (real estate · cars · jobs · marketplace) · thousands of listings per run · category-aware fields (Totalpris, Felleskostnader, mileage, dealer segment, EV range) · direct JSON APIs (no browser) · GPS on every listing · export to JSON / CSV / Excel. The unofficial Finn.no API alternative for Norwegian market research, valuation, recruitment intelligence and lead generation.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal to scrape Finn.no? The Actor only collects publicly available listing data visible to any website visitor without login. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with Finn.no's terms and applicable laws such as GDPR.

Does Finn.no have a public API — is this an API alternative? Finn.no has no official public listings API. This Actor is an unofficial Finn.no API alternative — it reads Finn.no's own internal JSON endpoints and returns clean structured records for real estate, cars, jobs and marketplace items.

Do I need a Finn.no account or API key? No. The scraper reads Finn.no's public internal JSON APIs directly, so no Finn.no account, login or API key is required — only an Apify account.

Does this work for all Norwegian regions? Yes. Leave location blank to scrape all of Norway, or add a location ID to target a specific city or region.

What is Totalpris? Total price including any shared debt (fellesgjeld) in co-operative housing — the true cost to the buyer, mandatory in Norwegian property listings. Returned in the totalPrice field.

What is Felleskostnader / Monthly Fee? Monthly shared building costs for co-operative (Andel) or share (Aksje) apartments — maintenance, insurance and sometimes heating. Critical for calculating total ownership cost. Returned in monthlyFee.

What do Eier / Andel / Aksje mean? Norwegian property ownership types. Eier (Selveier) = freehold (you own the property outright). Andel = co-operative share (Borettslag). Aksje = share in a housing company (Aksjeleilighet). Andel and Aksje properties carry shared debt and monthly fees.

What does dealerSegment mean for cars? Merkeforhandler = authorised brand dealer, Forhandler = used-car dealer, Privat = private seller.

What is drivingRange for electric cars? The official WLTP-rated range in kilometres for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.

Do I need a proxy? Finn.no is accessible without proxies for light use. For scraping thousands of listings, keep useApifyProxy: true (the default) so the Actor rotates through Apify's proxy pool for consistent access.

Can I scrape Finn.no without login or an API key?

Yes. The scraper only reads public listing data, so you can scrape Finn.no real estate, car listings, jobs and marketplace items without any Finn.no account, login or key — just run it and export.

How do I export Finn.no data to CSV or JSON?

Every run saves results to an Apify dataset that you can download or export as CSV, JSON or Excel, making it easy to bulk-export Finn.no listings for spreadsheets or analysis.

How much data can I get?

Finn.no holds over 1.5 million active listings at any time with 35,000+ added daily, so you can scrape thousands of listings per run. Narrow with searchQuery and location, and raise maxResults (or set it to 0 for unlimited) to go deeper.

How do I scrape Finn.no listings for a specific Norwegian city?

Put the Finn.no location ID in the location field — for example 0.20061 for Oslo or 0.20007 for Bergen — and the scraper returns only listings from that city.

Can I scrape jobs in a specific industry?

Yes — use searchQuery with keywords like developer, sykepleier (nurse) or leder (manager), and combine with location to target specific cities.
