Run should have 2,270 results. It shows 257.
Closed
Run stops after 257 results obtained. Should be 2,270 results.
Hi,
Can you please provide me with the run details and the zillow search url you've entered so I can help? The run seems to be deleted & I can't investigate.
Thanks
BGA
Here I ran it again. This is the run ID. Same problem. md8RFzjnwGNWAncFO
Sorry but I can't access this other run unless you give me permission to (a popup will come up when you start the run asking whether to give me the author consent or not).
Well this is a common issue with zillow search api. The initial number of available results is usually higher than the actually existing listings you can browse (the list view in the right to the map).
You can take this url as an example (which is zoomed in part of your original map), Zillow says there's 42 rentals available, However if you count them you'll find only about 25 results: https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_rent/?searchQueryState=%7B%22pagination%22%3A%7B%7D%2C%22isMapVisible%22%3Atrue%2C%22mapBounds%22%3A%7B%22west%22%3A-117.26081088209247%2C%22east%22%3A-117.16528132581806%2C%22south%22%3A34.11832215196219%2C%22north%22%3A34.16833190121414%7D%2C%22usersSearchTerm%22%3A%22%22%2C%22customRegionId%22%3A%22c9f1c67e44X1-CR1sed2z7z7fnb5_1d7ald%22%2C%22filterState%22%3A%7B%22sort%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3A%22priorityscore%22%7D%2C%22fr%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Atrue%7D%2C%22fsba%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22fsbo%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22nc%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22cmsn%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22auc%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22fore%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22mf%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22land%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%2C%22manu%22%3A%7B%22value%22%3Afalse%7D%7D%2C%22isListVisible%22%3Atrue%2C%22mapZoom%22%3A14%7D&category=SEMANTIC Due to this happening in many other parts of the map, it can really make a difference in final results count.
I've tried your search url by the way, It's giving me about 960 results. Because of the discrepancy between this number and your results, Could you tell me please:
- Did the actor complete its run without errors after reaching 257 results?
- Did you use Residential proxy? It's highly recommended to avoid anti-bot blocking.

A pop up didn't come up. https://console.apify.com/view/runs/md8RFzjnwGNWAncFO
I know the zillow numbers shows more because of the apartment complexes sometimes have 20 available but show as one listing on the scraper list. But that doesn't account for the 2K or so difference in results.
The run was completed several times giving me around 250 or so results each time. Sometimes more. Sometimes less. Yes I used the residential proxy.
Hi again, Thank you for providing the run details.
The issue arises from 2 parts:
1- From your input, It looks like you forgot to modify "max_items": 500 to a value equal or higher than your target number of homes. If you need all results in a given area, please ensure this is equal or higher than the target number number.
2- There was also a technical issue on our end that reduced total homes number even below 500.
I've fixed the issue & published a new build, ran the same url again & it gives me about 960 results. This is the final number of results returned by zillow itself. (I've attached the data to thank you for reporting this :)
I hope this resolves your problem. If so you can close this and your other issue.
