## Pricing

from $0.75 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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

### What does Rightmove UK Property Scraper do?

Rightmove UK Property Scraper is an Apify Actor that extracts residential and commercial property listings for sale and rent across the United Kingdom from **Rightmove** (rightmove.co.uk)—the UK's number one property portal. It captures asking prices in British Pounds (`price`), bedrooms, bathrooms, floor area (`displaySize`), full postal addresses (`displayAddress`), property types (`propertySubType`), high-resolution photos (`propertyImages`), estate agency details (`customer`), tenure types (`tenure`), and direct listing links (`propertyUrl`).

Whether you are tracking regional housing price trends across Greater London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Edinburgh, or Bristol, calculating gross rental yields for buy-to-let portfolios, monitoring daily agent listings, or building automated PropTech deal alerts, this Actor provides structured real-time property intelligence at scale with zero proxy setup.
