This Actor reads the public search results directly, filtered by location, transaction type, and property type, and returns each listing as a flat row. Use it to monitor the Portuguese property market, feed your own database, or power a real estate analysis tool.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your location slug is valid and matches Imovirtual's URL structure. Try a broader location like lisboa instead of a specific neighborhood. Also ensure the transaction type and property type combination exists on the site.
The Actor returns fewer results than expected.
Imovirtual may paginate results, and the Actor respects the maxItems limit. Increase maxItems if you need more listings. Also verify that your filters are not too restrictive.
Some fields are empty in the output.
Not all listings have every field filled on Imovirtual. Empty fields are normal when the source page does not provide that information.
The run fails with an error.
Check that your input values are correct, especially the location slug. If the problem persists, try again later as Imovirtual may be temporarily blocking automated access.
