Rightmove Scraper — Buy · Rent · Agents · Commercial · Overseas · House Prices

The most complete Rightmove.co.uk scraper on Apify — eight search modes in one actor: properties for sale, properties to rent, estate agents, commercial sale, commercial let, sold house prices, overseas sale, overseas rent. Paste any Rightmove URL or build a search from filter fields. Pure HTTP, no browser, ~100 fields per listing including historic sold prices, floor plans, EPC, and full agent metadata.

Input	Row(s) emitted
Property search URL (sale / rent / commercial / overseas)	N property rows — one per listing, auto-paginates the full result set
Direct property URL — /properties/{id}	1 property row with full mobile-API payload
Estate agent search URL	N agent rows — one per branch/agent
House prices URL — /house-prices/{postcode}.html	N sold-history rows — sold prices, dates, property type
Search filter form (no URL needed)	Same as above — actor builds the URL from your filters

Pure HTTP. No Puppeteer, no Playwright, no headless Chromium, no third-party CAPTCHA solver.

Why use this scraper

• Eight modes in one actor. Most Rightmove scrapers only handle sale + rent. This one covers commercial property, overseas listings, sold house prices, and estate-agent directories — without switching tools or paying for separate actors.
• Historic sold prices. Pull a property's full sale history (price + year for every prior transaction) so you can spot growth corridors and price drops.
• Floor plans + EPC + media. Direct URLs to PDF floor plans, energy-performance certificates, virtual tours, and full-size image sets.
• Agent intelligence. Brand, branch ID, phone, agent type (Sales / Lettings / Commercial), and the agent's full Rightmove profile URL — useful for B2B lead generation.
• Smart input. Paste any Rightmove URL OR fill the filter form (location, radius, beds, price, sort, SSTC/Let-Agreed flags). The actor auto-resolves location names → Rightmove identifiers.
• Monitoring mode. On rerun, only emit listings that are new since the last run — perfect for daily watchlists or new-build alerts.
• JSON or CSV. Standard Apify dataset export. Stream live or download after the run.

---

Overview

The actor classifies each input by URL pattern (sale / rent / commercial / overseas / agents / house-prices) and routes it through a matching internal handler. For listing searches, it hits Rightmove's mobile API for the bulk fetch then fans out to individual property endpoints with bounded concurrency. Each row is flat (no nested arrays of mixed shapes) and typed by the URL it came from — so a sale row, a rent row, an agent row, and a sold-house-price row all sit cleanly side-by-side in the same dataset, distinguishable by transactionType / channel / route metadata.

One row = one paid result. No hidden multipliers, no per-page surcharges. Reviews, images, and floor plans are bundled into the property row, not billed separately.

---

Supported inputs

You can mix any of these in a single run; the actor classifies and routes each one automatically.

Search URLs (any mode)

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/find.html?...        ← For Sale
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-to-rent/find.html?...         ← To Rent
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/commercial-property-for-sale/find.html?...   ← Commercial sale

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/estate-agents/find.html?...            ← Estate agents

Direct entity URLs

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/{propertyId}                ← Single listing
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/estate-agents/agent/{name}-{branchId}.html  ← Agent branch

Filter form (no URL)

If you don't have a URL handy, fill the filter section: search mode, location, radius, price range, bedrooms, must-haves, sort. The actor builds a working Rightmove search URL from your inputs and runs it.

Not yet supported

• Floor-plan PDFs are linked in the output but not downloaded into the dataset
• propertyDisclaimer text comes from Rightmove as HTML (intentional — keep the markup if you need to render it back)

Use cases

Audience	What they use it for
Property investors	Track new listings + price changes in target postcodes; pull historic sold prices to model growth
Estate agencies	Competitor branch monitoring, agent benchmarking, new-stock alerts
PropTech & analytics	Build datasets for AVMs, yield calculators, rent-vs-buy comparisons
Buy-to-let / portfolio managers	Daily rent-monitoring across multiple boroughs; let-agreed tracking
Researchers & journalists	Sold-price datasets by postcode, region, or property type
B2B lead-gen	Estate-agent directory pulls — branch + phone + brand + agent type

What the ROI math looks like

Say you monitor 15,000 London rentals daily. At $0.95 / 1,000 rows and one full refresh per day, that's ~$0.43 / day = $13 / month — vs $500/month for an enterprise PropTech feed, or the recurring cost of building and maintaining a custom Rightmove crawler. The actor handles pagination, retries, session rotation, and listing-detail enrichment for you.

---

How it works

1. Classify input. Each startUrls entry is matched against Rightmove URL patterns to determine its route — search, property detail, agent, or house-prices.
2. Fetch with HTTP only. No browser, no headless Chrome. Rightmove's mobile API (api.rightmove.co.uk/api/v2/properties/{id}) returns rich JSON; search pages are JSON-API too (/api/property-search/listing/search).
3. Parse + denormalize. Each property row is flattened from the API payload — ~100 fields including bedrooms, address, price (with currency code), agent, branch, full image set, key features, EPC, floor plan URL.
4. Optional enrichment. With moreDetails: true, the actor fetches the property's full web page for extra fields not in the mobile API. With includeSaleHistory: true, it pulls the sold-prices endpoint and embeds the result into the row.
5. Concurrent + bounded. Internal handler runs at concurrency 20 per page with min/maxConcurrency for the Crawlee fallback layer. maxRequestRetries controls retry budget per URL.
6. Push. Every parsed row is Actor.pushData()-ed live. The dataset is queryable mid-run; the run isn't paused waiting for the full batch.

Input configuration

The actor takes either a list of URLs or a filled-in filter form. If both are present, startUrls wins.

Output overview

Each row is a single Rightmove entity — a property, an agent branch, or a sold-price record. The shape varies slightly by route, but they all share:

• identifier / propertyId — Rightmove's primary key for the entity
• transactionType — BUY, RENT, RES_LET, COMMERCIAL_SALE, COMMERCIAL_LET, etc.
• channel — Rightmove's internal channel tag
• propertyUrl — canonical Rightmove URL (clickable)
• The full mobile-API payload, flattened

FAQ

Q. Can I scrape a single property by ID? Yes — paste the canonical URL https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/{id} into startUrls. The actor hits Rightmove's mobile API directly.

Q. Do I need to provide a Rightmove location identifier, or can I just type "London"? Either works. If you only fill searchLocation ("London", "Canary Wharf", "NW3"), the actor resolves it to a Rightmove identifier automatically. Passing searchLocationIdentifier (e.g. REGION^87490) skips the resolve step and is more reliable for unusual locations.

Q. How is this different from other Rightmove scrapers on Apify? This is the only one with eight modes in a single actor — sale, rent, agents, commercial sale, commercial let, sold prices, overseas sale, overseas rent. Most competitors only handle sale + rent. It also includes historic sold-price retrieval and full agent metadata.

Q. Does it work on every Rightmove URL? Public listings (sale, rent, commercial, overseas, agents, house-prices) — yes. Sold-out listings sometimes have stripped data (available: false); the actor still emits a row but some fields are null. Pre-market / off-market properties not visible to the public are not accessible.

Q. What's the throughput? With residential proxy, ~25 rows/second sustained on a search route, including detail enrichment. A 6,000-row London search takes 4-5 minutes end-to-end.

Q. Does monitoring mode work across runs? Yes — monitoringMode: true uses Apify's KV store to remember IDs seen in previous runs. On rerun, only newly-listed properties are emitted. Reset by deleting the actor's persistent state, or by switching monitoringMode: false.

Q. Can I get floor plans or EPC? Floor-plan PDF URLs and EPC certificate URLs are in the row. The actor doesn't download the PDFs into the dataset — you'd fetch them separately if you need the binary content.

Q. How is pricing calculated? Pay-per-result. One dataset row = one paid outputrecord event. 120-minute free trial included on first install. No subscription, no monthly fee.

Q. Do I need my own proxy? No — Apify residential proxy is included and recommended. You can swap in your own if you prefer; the actor honours the proxy input field.
