Quick start

Paste any Zillow search URL you see in your browser. That is the whole input.

{
  "searchUrls": ["https://www.zillow.com/homes/Austin-TX_rb/"],
  "maxPages": 3
}

Three common variations:

{ "locations": ["78704"], "listingType": "sold" }

{ "locations": ["Denver, CO"], "listingType": "for_rent", "maxPrice": 3500 }

{ "searchUrls": ["https://www.zillow.com/homes/Austin-TX_rb/"], "dedupe": false }

The last one turns off dedupe so you can run it on a schedule and build your own price history table.

What you get back

  "state": "TX",
  "zip": "78725",
  "price": 299000,
  "beds": 4,
  "baths": 2,
  "sqft": 2047,
  "lotSize": 6930,

  "rentZestimate": 2174,
  "daysOnMarket": 3,
  "flags": ["new_listing", "below_zestimate"],
  "url": "https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/..."
}

Flags are the fastest way to filter downstream. No need to re read titles.

FAQ

Is there a public Zillow API? No. Zillow closed the public API in 2021. This actor reads the same HTML a browser sees.

Does it return the Zestimate? Yes. Every row that has a Zestimate on the search page returns one.

Can I scrape rentals? Yes. Set listingType to for_rent or paste a rental URL.

Can I scrape sold comps? Yes. Set listingType to sold or paste a sold URL.

Can I track price changes over time? Yes. Set dedupe: false and schedule it daily. Each row stamps scrapedAt so you build your own history.

Does Zillow block scrapers? Yes, aggressively on datacenter IPs. The actor uses residential proxy by default.

What is a zpid? Zillow Property ID. A stable unique id per listing. Used as the dedupe key.

Is scraping Zillow legal? This actor reads public HTML a browser can see. Respect the site terms and rate limit sensibly.
