## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Aqarmap Egypt Real Estate Scraper

Scrape apartment, villa, duplex and office listings from **Aqarmap**, Egypt's property portal, for sale or for rent, and get clean data for price analysis: asking price, **price per m²**, area, bedrooms, bathrooms, district, compound or street, and whether the property is **inside a developer compound**.

### Features

- **Price per m² on every listing**, as shown on Aqarmap, for direct comparison between districts
- **Compound flag:** tells developer compounds (Rock Yard, Marriott Residence, Mountain View...) apart from ordinary buildings on streets. In the same Cairo district, compound flats are often listed at about twice the price per m²
- **Any district or city:** New Cairo, Sheikh Zayed, 6th of October, Maadi, Heliopolis, Nasr City, Faisal, Haram, Alexandria, the Red Sea and North Coast, or all of Greater Cairo
- **Sale, rent or both**, apartments, villas, duplexes, penthouses, studios, offices and land
- **Fast and light:** plain HTTP on search pages (22 listings per page), no browser, low memory
- **Clear failures:** a misspelt location is skipped and reported instead of silently returning the whole city

### Use cases

- **Property price research:** median price per m² by district, compound versus ordinary buildings, sale versus rent
- **Rental yield analysis:** compare asking rents with asking prices in the same area
- **Market monitoring:** schedule weekly runs and follow price changes in a district or compound
- **Investment screening:** find districts or compounds where the price per m² is below the area median
- **Datasets** for valuation models and dashboards

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `locations` | array | `["cairo"]` | Aqarmap location paths, e.g. `cairo/new-cairo`, `cairo/faisal`, `alexandria` |
| `transactionTypes` | array | `["sale"]` | `sale`, `rent` or both |
| `propertyType` | string | `apartment` | `apartment`, `villa`, `duplex`, `penthouse`, `studio`, `office`, `land` |
| `compoundFilter` | string | `all` | `all`, `compounds` (inside developer compounds only) or `ordinary` |
| `maxItems` | integer | `500` | Stop after this many listings; `0` for no limit |
| `maxPagesPerSearch` | integer | `10` | Pages per location and sale/rent (22 listings each); `0` for all |
| `startUrls` | array | empty | Optional Aqarmap search URLs, used instead of `locations` |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | off | Not needed for normal runs |

**Finding a location path:** open a search on aqarmap.com.eg and copy the part after the property type. In `https://aqarmap.com.eg/en/for-sale/apartment/cairo/el-sheikh-zayed-city/` the path is `cairo/el-sheikh-zayed-city`.

Example: apartments for sale and for rent in New Cairo and Faisal.

```json
{
  "locations": ["cairo/new-cairo", "cairo/faisal"],
  "transactionTypes": ["sale", "rent"],
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 10,
  "maxItems": 0
}
```

### Output

```json
{
  "listingId": "7267837",
  "url": "https://aqarmap.com.eg/en/listing/7267837-for-rent-cairo-new-cairo-compounds-porto-new-cairo-compound-amer-group/",

```

Prices are asking prices in Egyptian pounds; rents are monthly. The **Run statistics** record (`STATS`) lists, for each search, how many listings Aqarmap reports and how many were saved.

### How to use

1. Click **Try for free**.
2. Enter one or more locations (or paste Aqarmap search URLs), choose sale or rent and the property type.
3. Start with `maxItems: 100` to see the data, then raise it.
4. Click **Start**, then open the **Output** tab and export JSON, CSV or Excel.

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("scraper_guru/aqarmap-egypt-real-estate-scraper").call(run_input={
    "locations": ["cairo/new-cairo"],
    "transactionTypes": ["sale"],
    "maxItems": 1000,
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["district"], item["inCompound"], item["pricePerM2"])
```

### Pricing

Pay per result: you pay for each listing saved to the dataset, and platform usage is included. Apify shows the exact price before each run.

### FAQ

**Do I need an Aqarmap account?**
No. The Actor reads public search pages only.

**How is "inCompound" decided?**
From the listing's location: it is true when the location names a compound, a residence or a developer (for example "Rock Yard Compound" or "Marriott Residence - A Capital Holding"). Ordinary buildings show a street name instead.

**Are these sale prices?**
They are asking prices as listed. Final prices are usually lower, and many compound units are sold in instalments.

**Can I filter by price or number of rooms?**
Filter the dataset after the run. Search URL filters (price, rooms) are not applied.

**Does it collect phone numbers?**
No. Contact details are not collected.

**Something broke?**
Open the **Issues** tab on this Actor page.
