## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Lajumate.ro Romania Real Estate, Auto & Classifieds Scraper

Extract real estate listings, used vehicles, commercial equipment, prices, structured specifications, and **direct seller phone numbers** from **Lajumate.ro** — one of Romania's largest classifieds, property, and automotive marketplaces (including cross-posted HomeZZ and CarZZ inventory).

Built on fast Next.js SSR JSON extraction (`__NEXT_DATA__`) with zero browser overhead, no proxies required, and full **Apify Pay-Per-Event (PPE)** and **MCP AI Agent** support.

***

### What Data Does This Scraper Extract?

For every listing on Lajumate.ro, this Actor extracts:

- **Ad Identity & Pricing:** `id` (unique Lajumate ad ID), `title`, `price` (numeric), `currency` (`EUR`, `RON`), `negotiable`, `listedAt` timestamp, and direct `url`
- **Direct Seller Contact Info:** `sellerId`, `sellerName`, and **unmasked `sellerPhone`** (e.g., `0720064733`)
- **Geographic Location:** `city`, `county` (Județ), and `countyCode` (e.g., `IF`, `B`, `CJ`, `TM`, `SB`)
- **Structured Category Specifications (`attributes`):** Dynamic key-value pairs such as usable surface area (`Suprafață utilă`), rooms (`Numar Camere`), construction year (`An constructie`), land type (`Intravilan/Extravilan`), or vehicle make, model, mileage, and fuel type
- **Full Content & Media:** Complete `description` text, `mainImageUrl`, full `images` gallery array, and `crossPostedFrom` (`homezz` / `carzz`)

***

### Common B2B Use Cases

1. **Real Estate FSBO & Agency Lead Generation:** Extract newly listed residential and commercial properties across Romania with direct owner/agent phone numbers (`sellerPhone`).
2. **European Automotive Arbitrage & Dealership Sourcing:** Monitor `auto-moto-si-ambarcatiuni/autoturisme` and `autoutilitare` for underpriced passenger cars, vans, and commercial trucks in Romania.
3. **Property & Vehicle Market Valuation:** Aggregate historical and real-time asking prices per square meter across Romanian counties (`Bucuresti-Ilfov`, `Cluj`, `Timis`, `Brasov`, `Sibiu`, `Constanta`).
4. **Cross-Portal Inventory Aggregation:** Capture listings syndicated from Antena Group's **HomeZZ.ro** and **CarZZ.ro** ecosystems through a single unified scraper.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
