Showcase Commercial Real Estate Scraper
Scrape commercial real estate listings from Showcase for any US city, state, or property type. Every listing comes with its price, square footage, building class, and full property details. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Showcase commercial real estate listings are spread across city and state pages, and there is no public API for bulk access. This Actor reads the public listing feeds directly, filtered by state, city, property type, and transaction, and returns each match in one fixed schema.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Showcase for |
|---|---|
| Commercial real estate brokers | Monitor new listings in their market before clients see them |
| Market researchers | Track asking prices and inventory by property type across cities |
| Investors | Find off-market or newly listed commercial properties that match their criteria |
| Data analysts | Build a clean dataset of commercial listings for trend analysis |
What it does
This Actor collects commercial real estate listings from Showcase by state, city, property type, and transaction, and returns each one as a flat row.
- ๐ Geographic filters: state code and city slug, so you can target one metro or an entire state.
- ๐ข Property type filters: office, retail, warehouse, flex, hotel, apartment buildings, or land.
- ๐ฒ Transaction filters: for sale or for rent, so you only get listings that match your deal flow.
- ๐ข Max items control: set a hard cap from 1 to 1,000,000 properties per run.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

๐จ Find hotel investment opportunities.

๐ Monitor retail vacancy signals.
An analyst collects retail space for lease in several cities weekly and tracks changes in asking rates and available square footage.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.
Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that the state code and city slug exactly match a Showcase URL. Try a broader property type like commercial-real-estate, and make sure the transaction type exists for that market.
Why did the run stop before maxItems?
The Actor stops when it has collected maxItems or when there are no more listings matching your filters. Try removing the city filter or broadening the property type.
Why are some fields empty?
Showcase does not always publish every field for every listing. Missing data is returned as null or an empty string, depending on the field.
Can I scrape multiple cities in one run?
The input accepts one city per run. To cover multiple cities, run the Actor once per city, or use Apify's actor orchestration to loop over a list of cities.
Why did I get a timeout error?
Large runs can take time. Increase the Actor's timeout in the run settings, or lower maxItems to keep the run shorter.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Do I need a Showcase account or API key? | No. The Actor reads the public listing pages that Showcase serves to any browser, so no login or key is required. |
| What cities and states can I scrape? | Any US state using its two-letter code, and any city that Showcase has a slug for. Use lowercase and hyphens for multi-word cities, like los-angeles. |
| Can I get both for sale and for rent in one run? | The transaction field accepts one value per run. Run the Actor twice, once for for-sale and once for for-rent, and merge the datasets. |
| How many listings can I collect? | Set maxItems from 1 up to 1,000,000. The Actor stops as soon as it reaches your cap. |
| What property types are supported? | All commercial real estate, office space, retail space, warehouses, flex space, hotels, apartment buildings, and land. |
| What format is the data in? | Each listing is a flat JSON object. You can export the whole dataset to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify console. |
| Does this scrape residential listings? | No. This Actor is built for Showcase commercial real estate listings only. Residential listings are not included. |
| Can I schedule this to run automatically? | Yes. Use Apify schedules to run it daily or weekly, and set up an alert or webhook to push new listings to your team. |
| What if a city slug does not work? | Check the Showcase website URL for that city. The slug is the part after the state code, lowercase with hyphens. If the city is not listed on Showcase, there is nothing to scrape. |
| Is this legal to scrape? | You should only scrape public data that you are allowed to access and use. Review Showcase's terms of service and your local laws before using the data commercially. |
