Dubizzle Scraper — UAE Property, Cars & Brokers

Dubizzle Scraper extracts public Dubizzle UAE property listings, used-car listings, full listing details and property-broker records into a flat JSON or CSV dataset for real-estate analysts, PropTech teams, car dealers and lead researchers. Detail-enriched records cost USD 36 per 1,000 and search or broker records cost USD 160.03 per 1,000 on the FREE tier, plus a small start fee, and you only pay for records saved to your dataset.

It works with Dubizzle search URLs you filter in the browser, with individual listing URLs, or with the property-agents directory. Every row carries its source URL and scrape time.

What data does the Dubizzle scraper return?

Each record has the same 48 fields; fields that do not apply to a record type are null or an empty list, so the dataset loads cleanly into spreadsheets, SQL or BI tools.

Field group	Fields	Filled by
Identity	recordType, mode, listingId, url, title, section, category	all modes
Price	price, currency (AED)	search and details
Location	emirate, locality, latitude, longitude	mostly details
Property facts	propertyType, bedrooms, bathrooms, areaSqft, furnished, completionStatus, amenities	search (type, beds, baths, area) and details (all)
Car facts	vehicleMake, vehicleModel, vehicleYear, mileageKm, bodyType, fuelType, transmission, regionalSpecs	motors searches and car details
Seller and agent	sellerType, sellerName, agencyName, phone, whatsapp, email, isVerified, isFeatured	mostly details
Broker	brokerId, brokerName, brokerProfileUrl, listingsCount	brokers mode
Media and dates	imageUrl, photoUrls, postedAt, updatedAt	mostly details
Provenance	sourceUrl, scrapedAt, warnings	all modes

Search-card records are lighter: in the 2026-10-27 test a search row had price, property type, bedrooms, bathrooms and area, but no coordinates, agent contact or photos. Turn on Fetch listing details when you need the agent's name, agency, phone, WhatsApp, email, coordinates, amenities, completion status, posting dates and the full photo list. Contact fields are filled only when Dubizzle shows them publicly on the listing page; null means it was not shown.

How do I scrape Dubizzle property listings?

Open Dubizzle in your browser, apply the filters you want (emirate, price, bedrooms, community), copy the address bar URL and paste it into Start URLs with mode search. Then set Max results and Max pages.

{
  "mode": "search",
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://dubai.dubizzle.com/en/property-for-sale/residential/" }],
  "maxResults": 50,
  "maxPages": 3,
  "fetchDetails": true
}

Without Start URLs, the Actor builds a basic search from Location (for example dubai, abu-dhabi, sharjah), Section (property-for-sale, property-for-rent, motors), Property type (for example residential/apartment) and an optional keyword.

Can it scrape Dubizzle cars and broker profiles?

Yes. Use section motors or a https://dubai.dubizzle.com/en/motors/used-cars/ URL for used cars. Use mode brokers with https://uae.dubizzle.com/en/property-agents/ or a single broker profile URL for broker records. Use mode details with individual listing URLs when you already know which listings you want.

When should I use this Actor, and when not?

Use it when you need:

• UAE property comparables by community, size, bedrooms and asking price;
• daily or weekly monitoring of a filtered Dubizzle search (compare listingId between runs);
• agent and agency contact details that Dubizzle publishes on listing pages;
• used-car asking prices by make, model, year and mileage.

Do not use it for:

• private messages, saved searches or anything behind a Dubizzle login;
• other Dubizzle countries (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain); only UAE domains are accepted;
• Property Finder agent emails, where Property Finder Brokers Emails is the better fit;
• European property portals, where Idealista Scraper covers Idealista listings.

How much does the Dubizzle scraper cost?

You pay per record saved, plus a start fee per started GB of allocated memory (the default 1 GB run pays it once). Records that the Actor saves only as a fallback, because detail enrichment failed after retries, are kept in your dataset with a warning and are not charged. Blocked runs that save nothing are charged only the start fee.

Event	FREE	BRONZE	SILVER	GOLD and above
Search or broker record	USD 0.160026	USD 0.156025	USD 0.152024	USD 0.12802
Detail-enriched record	USD 0.036	USD 0.0351	USD 0.0342	USD 0.0288
Actor start (per started GB)	USD 0.017069	USD 0.016642	USD 0.016215	USD 0.013655

Worked totals on the FREE tier at 1 GB:

• The default run (1 search record): USD 0.160026 + USD 0.017069 = about USD 0.18.
• 100 detail-enriched property listings: 100 × USD 0.036 + USD 0.017069 = about USD 3.62.

Set a maximum total charge on the run if you want a hard cap; the Actor reduces Max results to what that cap can pay for before it starts.

Use it from an AI assistant

Dubizzle Scraper works from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client through Apify's MCP server. Add https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=muhammadafzal/dubizzle-search-detail-brokers to your client, then ask, for example: "Get 20 two-bedroom apartments for sale in Dubai Marina from Dubizzle with price, size and agent agency, and give me the median price per square foot."

API examples

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('muhammadafzal/dubizzle-search-detail-brokers').call({
    mode: 'search',
    startUrls: [{ url: 'https://dubai.dubizzle.com/en/property-for-rent/residential/' }],
    maxResults: 20,
    fetchDetails: true,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items.length);

Python (apify-client 3.x):

import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"])
run = client.actor("muhammadafzal/dubizzle-search-detail-brokers").call(
    run_input={"mode": "brokers", "startUrls": [{"url": "https://uae.dubizzle.com/en/property-agents/"}], "maxResults": 25}
)
items = client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).list_items().items
print(len(items))

Reliability and limits

Dubizzle protects its pages with bot protection, so the Actor uses a real browser, sticky sessions and several access routes, and moves to the next route only after the current one is challenged. When every proxy route is challenged, it falls back to a rendered-page route that returns the same page data. A typical small run finishes in 1 to 4 minutes. If no page can be read, the Actor stops after about 220 seconds, ends with a failed status that says it was blocked, and charges no records. The default timeout is 3,600 seconds at 1,024 MB, enough for the 1,000-record maximum; near the timeout it stops scheduling work and keeps what it saved.

FAQ

Is there a Dubizzle API for listings? Dubizzle does not offer a public listings API. This Actor reads the public website and returns the data as a dataset you can fetch through the Apify API.

Does it return agent phone numbers and emails? Yes, with Fetch listing details on, when Dubizzle shows them on the public listing page. Search-card rows do not include contacts.

Why does a row say "Detail enrichment failed"? The listing page could not be read after retries, so the Actor saved the search-card data instead. That fallback row is not charged.

Which emirates are supported? Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, Umm Al Quwain, Al Ain, or all of the UAE.

What happens if Dubizzle blocks the run? The run fails with a clear status message and an OUTPUT summary, and no record events are charged. Retry later.

Can I schedule it for price monitoring? Yes. Save your input as an Apify Task, schedule it, and compare listingId and price between datasets.
