Target	PropertyData.co.uk property analytics
Use Cases	Buy-to-let analysis, price benchmarking, rental yield comparison, market research, investment screening

📋 What it does

• 📈 Collects gross rental yield percentages per postcode area to identify the best buy-to-let locations
• 💰 Extracts price per square foot data across postcodes to spot undervalued areas
• 🏢 Returns commercial rent per sqft for retail and commercial property analysis
• 🏘️ Captures average prices broken down by detached, semi-detached, terraced, and flats
• 🔨 Accesses recent property sales with addresses, dates, and sale prices
• 🎯 Includes overall PropertyData area scores for quick location assessment

Each postcode lookup returns a structured record with rental yields, price metrics, average prices by property type, and recent sold prices. Batch processing with parallel requests means you can analyze dozens of postcodes in seconds.

💡 Why it matters: Property investment decisions depend on location-specific data like rental yields and price per sqft. Manually looking up individual postcodes is slow and difficult to compare. This scraper automates batch collection so you can screen entire cities and compare areas side by side.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

💳 Do I need a paid Apify plan to run this actor?

No. You can start right now on the free Apify plan, which includes $5 in free monthly credit. That is enough to run this actor several times and explore the output before committing to anything. Paid plans unlock higher limits, more concurrent runs, and larger datasets. Create a free Apify account here to get started.

🚨 What happens if my run fails or returns no results?

Failed runs are not charged. If the source site changes, proxies get rate-limited, or a specific input matches nothing, re-run the actor or open our contact form and we will investigate. You can also check the run log in the Apify console to see why the run stopped.

📏 How many items can I scrape per run?

Free users are limited to 10 items per run so you can preview the output and confirm the actor works for your use case. Paid users can raise maxItems up to 1,000,000 per run. Upgrade here if you need full scale.

🕒 How fresh is the data?

Every run fetches live data at the moment of execution. There is no cache or delay: the records you get reflect what the source returned at that moment. Schedule the actor to maintain a rolling snapshot of the data you need.

🧑‍💻 Can I call this actor from my own code?

Yes. Apify exposes every actor as a REST endpoint and ships first-class SDKs for Node.js and Python. You can start a run, read the dataset, and handle webhooks from your own app in a few lines. All you need is your Apify API token.

📤 How do I export the data?

Every Apify dataset can be downloaded in one click from the console as CSV, JSON, JSONL, Excel, HTML, XML, or RSS. You can also pull results programmatically via the Apify API or stream them into BigQuery, S3, and other destinations through built-in integrations.

📅 Can I schedule the actor to run automatically?

Yes. Use the Apify scheduler to run the actor on any cadence, from hourly to monthly. Results are saved to your dataset and can be delivered to webhooks, email, Slack, cloud storage, or automation tools such as Zapier and Make.
