Mitula Argentina Homes Scraper

Extract for-sale and rental property listings from Mitula Casas Argentina — a leading real-estate aggregator that collects listings from hundreds of Argentine portals and classified sites into a single search interface.

What does this Actor do?

The Mitula Argentina Homes Scraper crawls Mitula Casas Argentina search result pages and outputs structured data for every listing found. Because Mitula is a search-result aggregator (SERP), all the key details — title, price, location, bedroom count, size, description, and image — are embedded directly in the search-result cards. No separate detail-page visit is required, making the scraper fast and efficient.

For each listing the Actor collects:

• id — Mitula's internal unique identifier for the property
• title — Listing headline as shown on the card
• propertyType — Property category (e.g. Casa, Departamento, PH)
• priceText — Raw price string as shown on the page (e.g. USD 195.000)
• price — Parsed numeric price value
• currency — Detected currency code (USD, ARS, EUR)
• location — Barrio, city, or province where the property is listed
• bedrooms — Number of bedrooms (dormitorios, parsed from card text)
• bathrooms — Number of bathrooms (baños, parsed from card text)
• sizeSqM — Floor area in square metres (parsed from card text)
• features — Array of amenity/feature tags shown on the card
• description — Snippet description from the listing card
• imageUrl — Direct URL to the listing thumbnail image
• updatedText — Recency label (e.g. Hace 13 horas)
• clickUrl — Outbound tracking link (to the originating portal)
• searchUrl — The Mitula search page the listing was found on

How to use

1. Open the Actor in Apify Console.
2. Paste one or more Mitula Casas Argentina search URLs into the Start URLs field.
3. Set Maximum items to control how many listings to collect per URL.
4. Enable Proxy configuration — residential proxies with country code AR are recommended (the site blocks many IPs without a proxy).
5. Click Start. Results appear in the Dataset tab as JSON or CSV.

The Actor automatically follows Mitula's query-parameter pagination (?page=2, ?page=3, …) until it has collected the requested number of items or no more results are available.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Actor visit individual property portals? No. Mitula embeds all listing metadata in its search-result cards. The Actor never navigates to the third-party portal links.

Can I scrape multiple searches at once? Yes — add multiple URLs to the Start URLs field. Each URL gets its own independent maxItems counter.

Why do I need a proxy? Mitula Casas Argentina returns HTTP 401 for requests from many data-centre and residential IP ranges outside Argentina. Apify residential proxies with country code AR (the default) work reliably.

What currencies are supported? Listings on Mitula Argentina typically show prices in USD or ARS. The Actor detects both from the price text on each card.
