⚡ Why this Actor?

Feature	Typical Scrapers	✅ This Actor
Rightmove listing	Slow / brittle selectors	Uses stable parsing + fallback
Lead usefulness	Name only	Phone + profile URL + optional enrichment
Speed	Browser-heavy	Browser only where needed
Scale	Difficult	Designed for bulk location runs
Output	Messy	Clean JSON, dataset-ready

---

🧠 How enrichment works (Optional)

When enrichment is enabled, the Actor attempts to:

1. Discover the agency’s official website (search-based)
2. Extract emails from the website HTML
3. Collect key social links (LinkedIn / Instagram / Facebook / WhatsApp)

Note: Some agencies intentionally hide emails or use forms only. In such cases email may be null or "Not Found" depending on your implementation.

🎯 Best practices (to get higher email hit rate)

Use UK Residential proxies (recommended for Rightmove reliability).

Start with maxResults = 20–50, verify quality, then scale.

Prefer major city + postcode targeting (e.g., London, SW1A, M1).

Run separate jobs per location to keep datasets clean and comparable.

🧹 Data quality notes (important)

Email extraction on the open web includes false positives on some sites (e.g., placeholder templates). For best production usage:

filter out placeholders like email@company.com, example@...

store allEmails as an array

keep email as the “best primary candidate”

If you want, I can provide a stricter “email quality filter” version that reduces false positives significantly.

💼 Use cases

Lead generation: UK estate agencies by city/postcode

Partnership outreach: PropTech, conveyancing, mortgage brokers

Market research: Agency density & presence by area

Recruiting: Identify and contact branches hiring locally

CRM building: Repeatable runs and consistent fields

⏱ Performance & cost

Runtime and cost depend mostly on:

number of agencies (maxResults)

enrichment enabled/disabled

proxy type (datacenter vs residential)

Fast mode: Rightmove list only (cheapest) Enrich mode: Adds website/email/social discovery (higher value)

You are responsible for complying with:

Rightmove terms and applicable laws

email marketing regulations (GDPR/PECR)
