{
  "city": "Hamburg",
  "propertyType": "wohnung",
  "priceType": "miete",
  "priceMax": 1800,
  "roomsMin": 2,
  "areaMin": 50,
  "maxPages": 5,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]
  }
}

Expected output: ~100 rental listings with price, rooms, area, floor, district, and energy rating.

  "priceMax": 1500000,
  "roomsMin": 4,
  "maxPages": 10
}

Tips for best results

• Residential proxies significantly improve success rates on larger runs — select RESIDENTIAL in the proxy configuration
• Each page returns approximately 20 listings; maxPages: 10 = ~200 results
• Enable enrichDetails only when you need full descriptions or all photos — it multiplies runtime and proxy usage considerably
• For nationwide searches, leave city empty
• Immowelt has strong bot detection — always use proxies for runs above 5 pages

FAQ

Does this work without proxies? For small searches (1–3 pages), it usually works without proxies. For larger runs, Residential proxies are strongly recommended — Immowelt actively detects automated traffic.

How many listings can I scrape per search? Immowelt typically shows up to 50 pages per search (~1,000 listings). For broader coverage, split searches by city, price range, or property type.

Will it break when Immowelt updates their site? The scraper targets stable data attributes in Immowelt's page structure. The actor is maintained and updated when significant layout changes occur.

What's the difference between standard and detail mode? Standard mode scrapes search result pages only (~1–2s per listing). Detail mode (enrichDetails: true) additionally opens each individual expose page to extract the full text description, all listing photos, and extended feature data (~5–8s per listing).

Does it handle cookie consent popups? Yes — the scraper includes an automatic consent handler that dismisses GDPR cookie banners before scraping begins.
