Redfin Scraper

Apify Actor for scraping Redfin real estate listings. Uses CheerioCrawler for fast, efficient HTML parsing without a browser.

Features

• Scrape any Redfin search URL (city pages, zip code pages, filtered results)
• Extracts rich property data from Redfin's embedded JSON payload (up to 350 listings per page)
• Falls back to HTML + JSON-LD parsing when embedded data is unavailable
• Pagination support (automatically follows page links)
• Optional detail mode visits each property page for full descriptions, price history, photos, HOA fees, and listing agent info
• Proper User-Agent headers to pass Redfin's AWS WAF protection

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
searchUrls	requestListSources[]	NYC houses	Redfin search URLs to scrape
maxListings	integer	100	Max total listings to scrape (0=unlimited)
scrapeDetails	boolean	false	Visit each property page for full details
proxyConfiguration	object	{}	Proxy settings (recommended for large runs)

How It Works

1. Fetches each search URL with browser-like headers
2. Extracts Redfin's embedded JSON payload from reactServerState (contains up to 350 homes with full data)
3. Falls back to parsing HTML HomeCard elements + per-card JSON-LD if embedded JSON is unavailable
4. Handles pagination by detecting /page-N links and enqueueing subsequent pages
5. Optionally visits each property detail page for JSON-LD RealEstateListing schema + HTML enrichment
