## 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

Extract for-sale, for-rent, and recently-sold property listings from [realtor.com](https://www.realtor.com) by location — price, beds, baths, square footage, address, coordinates, photos, and broker.

### What you get

- Address, city, state, ZIP, county, coordinates
- Price (list price, or sold price + sold date for recently-sold)
- Beds, baths, square footage, lot size, year built, stories, garage
- Listing status, list date
- Primary photo and photo count
- Broker/brokerage name
- Full raw API result for anything not mapped to a named field

With **Include full listing details** enabled, each listing also gets one extra request for:

- Full free-text description
- Price per square foot (for-sale/sold)
- Separate full/half bath counts
- Listing agent name, email, phone, and office (when the listing has one — builder/community listings often don't)
- Pet policy text (rentals)

### How to use

1. Open this Actor and click **Start**
2. Set **Location** (e.g. `Austin, TX`) — same free-text format realtor.com's own search box accepts
3. Pick **Mode**: `BUY`, `RENT`, or `SOLD`
4. Optionally set **Min/max price** and **Min/max beds** — these are applied server-side by realtor.com, not filtered after the fact
5. Set **Max items** to cap how many listings are returned (0 = all matching listings)
6. Optionally enable **Include full listing details** for full description, agent contact, and price per sqft — one extra request per listing, so it's off by default
7. Run and download results from the **Dataset** tab

### Input example

```json
{
  "location": "Austin, TX",
  "mode": "BUY",
  "minPrice": 250000,
  "minBeds": 3,
  "maxItems": 100
}
```

### Output example

```json
{
  "propertyId": "8838103763",
  "url": "https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/11000-Anderson-Mill-Rd-Unit-11_Austin_TX_78750_M88381-03763",
  "status": "for_sale",
  "price": 299000,
  "address": "11000 Anderson Mill Rd Unit 11",
  "city": "Austin",
  "state": "TX",
  "postalCode": "78750",
  "county": "Williamson",
  "latitude": 30.450886,
  "longitude": -97.814795,
  "beds": 3,
  "baths": 2.5,
  "sqft": 1382,
  "yearBuilt": 2001,
  "primaryPhoto": "https://ap.rdcpix.com/...",
  "brokerName": "Compass RE Texas LLC - Austin",
  "source": "realtor.com",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-08-08T00:00:00.000Z"
}
```

### Tips

- Start with a small `maxItems` to confirm results look right before scaling up.
- `minPrice`/`maxPrice`/`minBeds`/`maxBeds` are applied by realtor.com's own search, so they don't cost extra requests the way client-side filtering would.
- For `SOLD` mode, `price` is often `null` for older sales — check `soldDate`/`soldPrice` instead.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token

});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "location": "Austin, TX",
    "maxItems": 100

const run = await client.actor("one_house/realtor-com-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "location": "Austin, TX",
  "maxItems": 100
}' |
apify call one_house/realtor-com-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,one_house/realtor-com-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
