• 🏠 Rich property data — price, bedrooms/bathrooms, parking, land and floor area, property type, description, and listing status for every result.
• 📍 Full address and geolocation — street, suburb, district, region, postcode, and GPS coordinates for mapping or geospatial analysis.
• 🧑‍💼 Agent and office contacts — name, email, phone, photo, and agency details for every listing agent.
• 📸 Full-resolution photos — every listing photo, plus open home dates and times.
• 🚀 No proxy needed — Realestate.co.nz's listings API has no bot protection, so runs are fast and cheap by default.

How to scrape Realestate.co.nz property data

1. Open the Realestate.co.nz Scraper page on Apify.
2. Search on realestate.co.nz as you normally would — apply the region, price, bedroom, or property-type filters you want — then copy the resulting URL from your browser.
3. Paste that URL into startUrls.
4. Leave fullScrape off for a quick single-page test (20 results), or turn it on to collect every matching result (up to 10,000).
5. Click Start and watch results land in the dataset in real time.
6. Export the finished dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or XML, or pull it via the API / integrations.

Input / Output

Single search page (default, cheapest way to test):

{
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.realestate.co.nz/residential/sale/auckland" }],

  ],
  "fullScrape": true
}

Mix sale, rental, and a specific page of results in one run:

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.realestate.co.nz/residential/sale/auckland/auckland-city/parnell" },
    { "url": "https://www.realestate.co.nz/residential/rent/wellington?minbe=2" },

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("parsebird/realestate-nz-scraper").call(run_input={
    "startUrls": [{"url": "https://www.realestate.co.nz/residential/sale/auckland"}],
    "fullScrape": True,

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["title"], item["price"])

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('parsebird/realestate-nz-scraper').call({
    startUrls: [{ url: 'https://www.realestate.co.nz/residential/sale/auckland' }],
    fullScrape: true,

console.log(items);

Use cases

• Market research — analyze prices, property types, and sizes across a region, district, or suburb.
• Price monitoring — schedule daily runs on a search URL to track new listings and price changes over time.
• Lead generation — pull agent and office contact details for a target market segment.
• Investment analysis — filter by price range, land area, and property type to screen for investment opportunities.
• Portfolio and map building — use the GPS coordinates and address fields to plot listings or feed a geospatial dashboard.

How it works

1. The Actor reads the same listings data API that powers the Realestate.co.nz search page — no HTML scraping, no missed or stale fields.
2. It parses your search URL to identify the listing type (sale/rent/sold), location (nationwide, region, district, or suburb), and every filter in the query string, then maps them onto the API's native filter parameters.
3. For fullScrape, it pages through results in batches until every matching listing (up to Realestate.co.nz's 10,000-result search limit) is collected; otherwise it fetches a single page of 20 results (or the page set by ?page=N).
4. Every listing is deduplicated by its Realestate.co.nz listing ID as it's found, and pushed to the dataset immediately.

Note on sold listings: /residential/sold/... URLs use a different Realestate.co.nz data model (property sale-history records, not active listings) — supported fields are limited to price, address, size, and bedrooms/bathrooms, with no agent, image gallery, or open-home data, and results are not guaranteed to be sorted by most-recent sale.

How much does it cost to scrape Realestate.co.nz?

This Actor uses the Pay-Per-Event pricing model — you only pay for what you get, with no separate compute charge.

Event	Free	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Listing (per 1,000)	$0.99	$0.89	$0.79	$0.79

Collecting 1,000 unique listings costs $0.99 on the Free plan, down to $0.79 on Silver/Gold. Apify's monthly platform usage credits apply to any plan.

Is it legal to scrape Realestate.co.nz?

Yes — scraping publicly available data is generally legal, as confirmed in cases like hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn. This Actor only collects property information that's publicly visible on realestate.co.nz to anyone browsing the site. You are responsible for how you use the collected data — always check the target site's terms of service and applicable law before reusing scraped data commercially. See Apify's blog post on web scraping legality for more detail.

FAQ

Does this use an official Realestate.co.nz API? No — Realestate.co.nz does not offer a public listings API for third-party use. This Actor reads the same data feed the realestate.co.nz website itself loads, structured into clean JSON.

Why does fullScrape stop before 10,000 results sometimes? Realestate.co.nz's search backend caps any single search at 10,000 matching results. If your search matches more than that, narrow it with additional filters (price, bedrooms, property type, or a smaller location) to reach the listings you want.

Which URL filters are supported? All of them: price (minp/maxp), bedrooms (minbe/maxbe), bathrooms (minba/maxba), car parks (mincp), land area (minla/maxla), floor area (minfa/maxfa), property type (scat), pricing method (pm), new construction (nc), coastal waterfront (cw), swimming pool (sp), open homes only (ooh), floor plans (fps), video (vid), 3D walkthroughs (3dw), keyword (k), address (ad), school zone (school), mortgagee sale (ms), and rental furnishing (off/uf/pf). Just build the search on realestate.co.nz and paste the resulting URL.

Can I scrape a specific suburb or district instead of a whole region? Yes — paste the URL for whatever level you searched at (e.g. .../sale/auckland, .../sale/auckland/auckland-city, or .../sale/auckland/auckland-city/parnell); the Actor resolves the location automatically.

Do I need a proxy? No. Realestate.co.nz's listings API has no bot protection, so proxyConfiguration defaults to off. Only turn it on if you're running very high volumes and want to distribute requests across IPs.

Can I schedule this to run automatically? Yes. Use Apify's Scheduler to run it daily, weekly, or at any interval, and combine it with Apify's storage integrations (Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, webhooks) to get notified of new listings.

I found a bug or missing field — where do I report it? Open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab in Apify Console, or use the API directly for programmatic access.
