## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Zillow FSBO Lead Scraper

Automatically scrape **For Sale By Owner** listings from Zillow and extract seller contact information — addresses, prices, phone numbers, emails, and property details. Built for real estate agents, teams, and brokerages who want a steady pipeline of FSBO leads without the manual work.

### What it does

This actor searches Zillow for FSBO listings in any US market and extracts:

- **Property data**: address, city, state, ZIP, price, beds, baths, sqft, lot size, property type, year built
- **Seller contact info**: name, phone number, email address
- **Listing details**: description, photos, days on market, Zillow listing URL
- **Location data**: latitude, longitude, ZPID

#### Dual scraping approach

1. **Zillow API** (primary) — fast, low-cost, hits Zillow's internal search endpoints
2. **Browser fallback** — if the API is blocked, automatically switches to a full Playwright browser with residential proxies for maximum reliability

You always get results, even when Zillow tightens access.

### How to use

#### 1. Set your target market

| Input | Description | Default |
|-------|-------------|---------|
| `location` | City/state or ZIP code (e.g. `Portland, OR` or `97201`) | Required |
| `radius` | Search radius in miles | 25 |
| `maxResults` | Maximum listings to return | 50 |

#### 2. Run the actor

Click **Start** or trigger via API. Results are saved to the dataset as structured JSON — download as CSV, JSON, or Excel.

#### 3. (Optional) Auto-deliver to your CRM

Set the `webhookUrl` input to your CRM's webhook endpoint. Each lead is automatically POSTed as it's scraped — no manual import needed.

**RealtyGrind users**: Connect your Apify API key in CRM Settings → Lead Feeds for fully automated FSBO lead import with deduplication, auto-assignment, and AI SDR follow-up.

  "address": "742 Evergreen Terrace",

  "state": "OR",
  "zip": "97201",

  "daysOnZillow": 12,
  "photos": ["https://..."],
  "scrapedAt": "2026-04-02T10:30:00.000Z"
}
````

### Use cases
