🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps

Compact reference for AI agents calling this actor via the Apify MCP server or the Apify API (actor: memo23/lennar-scraper).

Purpose: Extract new-home community, home, and plan data from Lennar.com for a chosen U.S. regional market — pricing, specs, coordinates, and nested plan/homesite detail.

Minimal input:

{
  "state": "AUS",
  "expandToWholeState": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

Output: one dataset row per home — community {communityId, communityName, communityDescription, url, location, address {postalcode, streetaddress, stateCode, city, full_address}, phone, hasSchools, types}, home {homeId, homeName, description, url, image, address, homesite, status, checkoutType, baths, halfBaths, beds, price, wasPrice, sqft, isTourable, offerStartDate, offerEndDate, lotid, plan}, otherData {community, plan, homesite}.

Behaviors an agent should know:

• state is required — a Lennar market code (e.g. AUS, MIA, DEN); see the schema enum for all 65+ codes.
• expandToWholeState defaults to true, scraping every market that shares the selected state tag; set false to scrape only the single market.
• No maxItems cap exists in the schema — a whole-state run can return thousands of rows; bound it with expandToWholeState: false or a narrower market.
• outputFormat: standard (nested), basic (flat columns in the flat-output dataset), or both (default, emits both).
• Residential proxy is recommended for reliable extraction.
• Pay-per-event billing — see the Pricing tab on the actor page.
