🏙️ UAE Dubai Property Leads Scraper

🚀 Pull every active Dubai property listing in seconds. Filter by category, price, bedrooms, area, and amenities across PropertyFinder, Bayut, and Dubizzle. No API key, no registration, no manual CSV wrangling.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-08 · 📊 30 fields per record · 3 sources unified · Residential AE proxy by default · Up to 1,000,000 listings per run

Dubai's real estate market churns through tens of thousands of new and updated listings every week, spread across PropertyFinder.ae, Bayut.com, and Dubizzle. Each platform exposes a slightly different schema, a different anti-bot posture, and a different gravitational pull on which agents and agencies bother to publish there. Tracking the full picture by hand is hopeless: you would need three browsers, three logins, three pagination loops, and a lot of patience for Cloudflare. This Actor folds all three feeds into one normalized schema so you can query Dubai property supply the way a data team should: as rows, not tabs.

This Actor is built for Dubai-focused property investors comparing yields street by street, brokerage operations chasing fresh leads in target communities, market-research teams measuring price-per-square-foot momentum, and portfolio managers who need a clean weekly snapshot of inventory. It runs through Apify Residential proxy in the AE region and uses a stealthy headful browser approach to clear Cloudflare and Incapsula challenges, then extracts listings from the page's hydrated JSON. Output is plain JSON, ready to feed into BigQuery, Postgres, a notebook, or a Make / Zapier workflow.

🎯 Target Audience and Primary Use Cases

Audience	Use Case
🏘️ Property investors	Track new listings in Dubai Marina, Downtown, JVC, and other target communities
🤝 Brokerage operations	Generate fresh agent and agency leads matching specific price and area filters
📊 Market researchers	Measure rental and sale price-per-sqft momentum across Dubai neighborhoods
🏗️ Property developers	Monitor competitor pricing on completed and off-plan inventory
💼 Portfolio managers	Run a weekly snapshot of available stock for asset rebalancing decisions

📋 What the UAE Dubai Property Leads Scraper does

• 🏷️ Three sources, one schema. PropertyFinder, Bayut, and Dubizzle listings normalized into a single row shape so you can union, dedupe, and analyze without per-source plumbing.
• 🔁 Rent or buy, your pick. Choose rent for yearly rentals or buy for sale listings. Switch in one input field.
• 💰 Price filters. Bound listings between minPrice and maxPrice in AED so the dataset stays focused on the deal range you actually care about.
• 🛏️ Bed, bath, and area filters. Constrain by bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage to match a specific buyer or tenant profile.
• 🌆 Location and type filters. Pass any Dubai neighborhood (Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, Business Bay) and property types (Apartment, Villa, Townhouse, Penthouse) to scope the run.
• 🛋️ Furnishing and completion filters. Restrict to furnished, unfurnished, partly-furnished, ready, or off-plan inventory.
• 📞 Optional agent contact extraction. Toggle extractAgentContact to include the agent name and phone where the source publishes it. Disable for cleaner cold-prospecting workflows.

Each output record is one Dubai property listing. Alongside the title, location tree, price, bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage, the row includes the source platform, listing reference number, RERA permit number where present, agent and developer name, furnishing and completion status, the full image gallery, the canonical URL, the Markdown description, and the scrape timestamp.

💡 Why it matters: Dubai's property feed is fragmented across three platforms, each behind anti-bot defenses. A single normalized stream lets you make pricing, lead-gen, and portfolio decisions on a unified view rather than three disjointed tabs.

minBathrooms / maxBathrooms	integer	no	Bathroom bounds.
minArea / maxArea	integer	no	Property area bounds in square feet.

furnishingStatus	enum	no	One of all, furnished, unfurnished, partly-furnished.

Example: ten 2-bed Dubai Marina apartments for sale under 3M AED across all three platforms:

{
    "category": "buy",
    "sources": ["propertyfinder", "bayut", "dubizzle"],
    "locations": ["Dubai Marina"],
    "propertyTypes": ["Apartment"],
    "minBedrooms": 2,
    "maxBedrooms": 2,
    "maxPrice": 3000000,
    "maxItems": 10,
    "extractAgentContact": true
}

Example: PropertyFinder rentals in Downtown Dubai, fast pull, no detail enrichment:

{
    "category": "rent",
    "sources": ["propertyfinder"],
    "locations": ["Downtown Dubai"],
    "maxPages": 3,
    "maxItems": 50,
    "extractDetailedInfo": false
}

⚠️ Good to know: PropertyFinder, Bayut, and Dubizzle all sit behind Cloudflare or Incapsula and geo-restrict their listings to UAE traffic. The Actor uses Apify Residential proxy in the AE region by default. Disabling proxy is not recommended.

📈 How it compares to alternatives

Approach	Cost	Coverage	Refresh	Filters	Setup
⭐ UAE Dubai Property Leads Scraper (this Actor)	Apify usage only	All three major Dubai platforms	Live	Price, beds, baths, area, location, type, furnishing, completion, amenities	None, run from console
Official portal CSV exports	Per-portal seat fee	Single portal only	Daily batch	Per-portal UI	Account, login, manual download
Paid live property APIs	High monthly subscription	Curated subset	Live	Per-vendor	Account, billing, API key
Legacy community dumps	Free	Stale, partial	Months out of date	Whatever the dump captured	Find and trust the dump
Manual portal browsing	Free	Whatever you can paginate	Live	Per-portal UI	Three browsers, three logins

For most teams the calculus is simple: a hosted scraper that returns clean unified JSON is worth more than the time spent hand-crawling three anti-bot portals.
