## 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/docs.md):

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

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

## 🏠 Trulia Real Estate Scraper — Listings, Agents & Prices

**Scrape Trulia *property listings* — address, price, beds/baths, sqft, lot, year built, property type, status, photos and MLS# — *plus* the listing agent & broker name and phone. Search by city or ZIP, pick for‑sale / for‑rent / sold, or paste Trulia URLs. US residential, no login.**

> 🕒 Straight from Trulia's own page data · 🇺🇸 US listings · 🚫 No login or API key · 📞 Agent & broker phone on each row

Turn any Trulia search into a clean, structured feed of property listings. Every listing comes back as one flat record: the full property core plus the listing agent and brokerage behind it — the same contact Trulia shows on the listing page. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets, or pull it via API.

---

### What it does

- 🏠 **Full listing record** — `address`, `city`, `state`, `zipcode`, `neighborhood`, `latitude`/`longitude`, `price`, `beds`, `baths`, `sqft`, `lotSize`, `propertyType`, `status`, `yearBuilt`, `photosCount`, `dateListed`, `zpid` and `listingId`.
- 📞 **Agent & broker contact** — `listingAgentName`, `listingAgentPhone`, `brokerName`, `brokerPhone` — the phone the others skip (opens each listing page; toggle off for a faster listings‑only feed).
- 🧾 **MLS + deal data** — `mlsName`, `mlsNumber`, `parcelNumber`, `propertySubtype`, `isForeclosure`, `pricePerSqft`.
- 🔎 **Search any way** — by **location** (`"Austin, TX"`, `"San Francisco, CA"`, `"78701"`), or by pasting **Trulia search / listing URLs**.
- 🏷️ **For sale, for rent, or recently sold** — pick the listing status for a location search.
- 🇺🇸 **Built for Trulia's anti‑bot** — runs on Apify **US residential** proxies with session seeding + automatic IP rotation, so listings come back populated, not blocked.

### 📊 Output — one flat record per listing

> 💡 Agent/broker phone, MLS#, structured year built and parcel number come from the listing page. With **Include agent & broker contact** off, you still get the full property core and the agent/broker name from search, just faster.

***

### Who it's for

- 🏦 **Mortgage, title & insurance** — new‑listing addresses as a buying signal for refi/purchase outreach.
- 📈 **Real‑estate investors** — deal flow by market, new listings, foreclosures, price‑per‑sqft, parcel #.
- 🧩 **PropTech / CRM** — ingest a clean, structured listing feed by city or ZIP.
- 🛠️ **Vendors & agents** — reach the listing agent/broker behind each active listing.

### How to use it

1. Click **Try for free**.
2. Enter a **Search location** (e.g. `Austin, TX`) and pick a **Listing status** — *or* paste **Start URLs**.
3. Set **Max results** and click **Start**.
4. Export from the **Dataset** tab (JSON, CSV, Excel, Google Sheets) or via API.

#### Examples

Every for‑sale listing in a city:

```json
{ "searchLocation": "Austin, TX", "listingStatus": "for_sale", "maxResults": 100 }
```

For‑rent listings in a ZIP:

```json
{ "searchLocation": "78701", "listingStatus": "for_rent", "maxResults": 200 }
```

From a Trulia search URL you already have:

```json
{ "startUrls": ["https://www.trulia.com/for_sale/San_Francisco,CA/"], "maxResults": 200 }
```

***

### ❓ FAQ

**What contact do I actually get?** The listing agent name + phone and the brokerage name + phone, exactly as Trulia shows them on the listing page. Email is not publicly exposed by Trulia.

**Why do some rows have a null phone?** Agent/broker phone is read from the listing page; if that page is skipped (contact toggle off) or momentarily blocked, the row still returns with the full property core and the agent/broker name from search.

**Do I need a login or API key?** No. It reads Trulia's public listing data — no account, no key.

**Why residential proxies?** Trulia fronts PerimeterX and blocks datacenter IPs. The Actor defaults to Apify **US residential** with session seeding and IP rotation so pages return populated data.

**Can I scrape for‑rent or sold listings?** Yes — set `listingStatus` to `for_rent` or `sold` for a location search.

**Can I export to Excel or Google Sheets?** Yes — the dataset exports to JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets, or via API.

**How much does it cost?** Pay‑per‑result — you only pay for the listings returned. It's free to try.

### Notes & fair use

You are responsible for complying with Trulia's Terms of Service and all applicable laws. This Actor reads publicly available real‑estate listing data (the same listing + agent contact Trulia shows on each page). Use the contact data responsibly and in line with anti‑spam and privacy rules in your jurisdiction.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchLocation` (type: `string`):

City + state or ZIP to search on Trulia, e.g. "Austin, TX", "San Francisco, CA" or "78701". Every matching listing is scraped. Leave blank if you use Start URLs instead.

## `listingStatus` (type: `string`):

Which listings to pull for the Search location above: for sale, for rent, or recently sold.

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Optional. Paste Trulia URLs directly — either search-results pages (e.g. https://www.trulia.com/for\_sale/Austin,TX/) or individual listing pages (https://www.trulia.com/home/...). Each type is auto-detected.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Cap on the number of listings returned this run (cost/speed guard). Default 100; set 0 to pull the whole search scope (up to a safety cap).

## `includeAgentContact` (type: `boolean`):

When on (default), each listing page is opened to add the listing agent & broker PHONE, MLS name + number, structured year built and parcel number. Turn off for a faster, listings-only feed (agent/broker name is still included from search).

## `requestConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many listing pages to fetch in parallel. Higher = faster; keep modest so Trulia's anti-bot doesn't throttle the run.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Trulia blocks datacenter IPs (PerimeterX), so US RESIDENTIAL is the default and strongly recommended for reliable results.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchLocation": "Austin, TX",
  "listingStatus": "for_sale",
  "maxResults": 5,
  "includeAgentContact": true,
  "requestConcurrency": 3,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "US"
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `records` (type: `string`):

The dataset of scraped Trulia property listings (one item per listing).
