What does this Portal Inmobiliario scraper do?

The Actor opens Portal Inmobiliario search result pages in a headless browser, follows paginated result URLs, and saves each public property listing to the Apify Dataset. Results can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, or accessed through the Apify API.

It supports:

• All 14 property types in the main search: apartments, houses, offices, parcels, land, commercial premises, sites, warehouses, industrial, agricultural, other properties, parking spaces, cemetery lots, and subdivisions.
• Sale, rent, and temporary rent, with the same property-type compatibility shown by Portal Inmobiliario.
• Location-based searches by commune or city.
• Multi-page extraction with up to 48 listings per result page.
• Residential Chile proxy configuration for more stable cloud runs.
• Fail-closed pagination: if a later page fails after retries or contains incomplete listings, the run fails, keeps the diagnostic in OUTPUT.errors, and does not publish or charge partial result rows.
• Structured output for analytics, lead generation, market research, and dashboards.

What data can you extract?

Each dataset item can include:

Field	Description
listing_id	Portal Inmobiliario / Mercado Libre listing identifier, when available.
title	Public listing title.
headline	Listing category headline, such as apartments for sale.
price_text	Price exactly as displayed on the site.
currency	Published currency, for example UF or CLP.
amount	Published price amount as text.
location	Address, commune, neighborhood, or visible location text.
attributes	Bedrooms, private offices, bathrooms, usable area, total area, parking, or other visible features.
badges	Visible labels such as project, discount, promoted, or delivery status.
image_url	Public image URL when available.
url	Public listing URL.
page	Search results page where the listing appeared.
position	Position inside that result page.
scraped_at	Extraction timestamp.
source_search_url	Search URL used for the run.

The OUTPUT key-value record also includes:

• status: success, partial, or no_results. partial is diagnostic output from a failed run; it is never published as a successful partial dataset. Source blocking and unrecognized page changes also fail the run.
• errors: source and pagination diagnostics retained in OUTPUT when the run fails.
• pages: count and URL metadata for every page that was processed.

Example output:

{
  "listing_id": "MLC-3212985598",
  "title": "Edificio Parque Quinta - Norte Verde",
  "headline": "Departamentos en venta",
  "price_text": "UF 2.911",

Pricing

The Actor charges USD 0.003 per property listing saved to the default Dataset. Apify also applies the configured Actor-start event at USD 0.00005 per GB of assigned memory. A source or pagination failure stops the run before partial result rows are published or charged.

Input

For most runs, users should only fill these fields:

• location: the normal search term, commune, city, or sector. Examples: Santiago, La Florida, Las Condes, Providencia.
• propertyType: one of the 14 property types listed below.
• operation: comprar, arrendar, or arrendar_temporal.
• maxPages: how many result pages to scrape.

Do not confuse location with locationSlug. If you want to search La Florida, write La Florida in location. Leave locationSlug empty unless you already know the exact Portal Inmobiliario URL slug.

Field	Required	Description
location	Yes	Normal search term, commune, city, or sector. Example: Santiago, La Florida, Las Condes, Providencia.
propertyType	Yes	departamento, casa, oficina, parcela, terreno, local, sitio, bodega, industrial, agricola, otro_inmueble, estacionamiento, lote_cementerio, or loteo.
operation	Yes	comprar for sale, arrendar for rent, or arrendar_temporal for temporary rent.
maxPages	No	Number of result pages to scrape. Each page can contain up to 48 listings.
delaySecs	No	Advanced. Pause between pages to reduce load on the website.
timeoutSecs	No	Advanced. Maximum seconds to wait for each results page.
proxyAttempts	No	Advanced. Number of navigation attempts per results page. Retries rotate residential proxy sessions when available.
failOnNoResults	No	Defaults to true so a confirmed empty search fails visibly. Set it to false only when a legitimate search with no listings should finish with status: no_results.
locationSlug	No	Advanced. Exact Portal Inmobiliario URL slug. Leave empty unless you know the slug. Example: la-florida-metropolitana, not La Florida.
regionSlug	No	Advanced. Region suffix used in the direct URL. Default: metropolitana.
proxyConfiguration	No	Advanced. Apify Proxy settings. Residential Chile proxy is used by default.

How to run the Actor through the API

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<APIFY_API_TOKEN>")

run = client.actor("scraperschile/portal-inmobiliario-chile-scraper-api").call(
    run_input={
        "location": "Santiago",
        "propertyType": "departamento",
        "operation": "comprar",
        "maxPages": 3,
    }
)

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["title"], item["price_text"], item["location"])

cURL

curl -X POST \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>' \

    "location": "Santiago",
    "propertyType": "departamento",
    "operation": "comprar",

  }' \

Search coverage and pagination

Portal Inmobiliario returns up to 48 listings per search results page. This Actor follows paginated result pages such as /_Desde_49, /_Desde_97, and later offsets until it reaches the configured maxPages, an empty page, or the end of available results.

The Actor automatically converts location, propertyType, and operation into the current Portal Inmobiliario URL format. For example, an office rental in Providencia becomes /arriendo/oficina/providencia-metropolitana, while temporary rentals use /arriendo-de-temporada/....

If the generated URL does not match the exact location used by Portal Inmobiliario, advanced users can pass locationSlug manually. This is useful for neighborhoods, regions outside Santiago, or locations whose URL includes extra words. Most users should leave locationSlug empty.

Reliability notes

Portal Inmobiliario is part of the Mercado Libre ecosystem and may show verification flows or change page markup. This Actor is designed for stable headless execution by using direct search result URLs, browser rendering, Chile residential proxy defaults, and structured parsing of visible public listing cards.

The Actor accepts an empty result only when Portal Inmobiliario displays an explicit no-results message. Verification pages, access blocks, generic branded pages, and unrecognized result markup fail the run. By default, even a confirmed empty search fails visibly to protect automated customers from silent empty datasets; set failOnNoResults to false when emptiness is expected.

For best results:

• Keep maxPages reasonable.
• Use Chile residential proxies in Apify cloud.
• Increase proxyAttempts when a run hits transient navigation failures.
• Use exact locationSlug only for ambiguous communes, neighborhoods, or non-default regions.
• Re-run periodically if you need fresh availability and prices.

Responsible use

This Actor only extracts public listing information visible on Portal Inmobiliario search pages. It does not log in, bypass private areas, collect credentials, or access non-public data.

Use the data responsibly and in accordance with applicable laws, privacy rules, Portal Inmobiliario terms, and Apify's policies. The Actor is not affiliated with Portal Inmobiliario, Mercado Libre, or any real estate broker.

FAQ

Is this a Portal Inmobiliario API?

It provides API-style access through Apify. You can run the Actor from Apify Console, the Apify API, Python, cURL, Zapier, Make, or scheduled jobs, then download structured Portal Inmobiliario listings from the dataset.

Can I scrape all Portal Inmobiliario pages?

You can configure maxPages for each search. Use focused searches by location, property type, and operation instead of broad uncontrolled scraping.

Which property types can it scrape?

It supports every type in the main Portal Inmobiliario search: apartments, houses, offices, parcels, land, commercial premises, sites, warehouses, industrial, agricultural, other properties, parking spaces, cemetery lots, and subdivisions.

Can it scrape sale, rent, and temporary rent listings?

Yes. Set operation to comprar, arrendar, or arrendar_temporal. Temporary rent is available for apartments, houses, parcels, and other properties; cemetery lots are sale-only.

Why do I sometimes need locationSlug?

Portal Inmobiliario URLs are slug-based, but most users do not need to know that. Write the normal commune or city in location. Use locationSlug only if you know the exact URL part used by Portal Inmobiliario, such as la-florida-metropolitana.
