## Pricing

from $1.65 / 1,000 listing scrapeds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## Funda Scraper - Netherlands Real Estate Listings

Scrape property listings from **funda.nl**, the Netherlands' dominant real-estate portal. Paste any funda.nl
search URL - to buy (koop) or to rent (huur), any area - and get clean rows with **price**, **living area**,
**rooms**, **bedrooms**, **energy label**, **plot**, **year built**, **full address** and **images**.
No API key. No browser. Runs through Apify Proxy.

### What you get per listing

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `title` / `url` / `id` | Address headline, canonical funda.nl URL, and id |
| `listingType` / `estateType` / `propertyType` | koop/huur, schema type, and funda's own property type |
| `price` / `currency` | Asking price and currency (EUR) |
| `areaSqm` / `plotSqm` / `volumeCubic` | Living area, plot (houses/land) and volume |
| `rooms` / `bedrooms` / `energyLabel` / `yearBuilt` | Rooms, bedrooms, energy label (A-G) and construction year |
| `street` / `postcode` / `city` / `region` | Structured location |
| `image` / `imageCount` | Cover image and photo count |

### Input

```json
{ "startUrls": ["https://www.funda.nl/zoeken/koop?selected_area=%5B%22amsterdam%22%5D"], "maxPagesPerUrl": 5 }
```

- **Search URLs** - build a search on funda.nl with your filters (area, price, type), then paste the URL. Buy and rent both work. One per line.
- **Import from a file** - paste a whole list, or link a public `.txt`/`.csv`, a Google Sheet/Drive link, or an Apify key-value-store record.
- **Output fields** - trim every record to exactly the columns you need for lean CSV/Sheets exports.

Leave everything empty and the run returns a small free sample so you can see the shape first.

### Reliability

Reads funda.nl through **residential Apify Proxy** with browser-grade TLS fingerprints (got-scraping). It works
in two steps: the search page yields the listing URLs, then each listing is read from its own detail page
(JSON-LD plus the structured feature list) so every row carries area, rooms, energy label and year - not just a
teaser. A search that matches nothing, or an import that cannot be read, bills **$0** and says why. Long runs
stop cleanly before the timeout and save everything collected so far.

### Honest limits

- **`plotSqm` fills for houses and land only** - apartments have no plot and return null by design.
- Two-step fetching makes this slower than a single-page scraper; that is the cost of full per-listing detail.
- Datacenter IPs are blocked by funda; keep the default **RESIDENTIAL** proxy.

### Pricing

**$0.003 per listing** on the FREE tier (tiered pricing lowers it with volume). Two page fetches per listing
justify the rate. Only listings actually saved are billed; empty searches and unreadable imports cost nothing.

### Output views

- **Listings** - title, price, area, rooms, city and the listing URL.

### Use with AI assistants (MCP)

Available through the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp) - an agent can pull
live Netherlands property listings with full detail, compare prices per m2, or enrich an address list in one call.

# Actor input Schema

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

funda.nl search URLs, one per line. Build a search on funda.nl with your filters (area, price, type), then paste the URL. Buy (koop) and rent (huur) both work. <b>Leave empty and the run returns a small free sample.</b>

## `startUrlsFromFile` (type: `string`):

Bulk-load funda.nl URLs. Either <b>paste the whole list</b> (one per line), or give <b>a single link</b> to a public <code>.txt</code>/<code>.csv</code>, a Google Sheet/Drive link, or an Apify key-value-store record. A file that cannot be read says so and charges nothing.

## `maxPagesPerUrl` (type: `integer`):

How many search-result pages to follow per start URL (about 15 listings per page). Each listing is then fetched from its own detail page.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Overall cap across all URLs. You are only charged for listings actually saved.

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

funda.nl blocks datacenter IPs; RESIDENTIAL Apify Proxy is recommended.

## `outputFields` (type: `array`):

Pick the fields you want and every record is trimmed to exactly those - handy for lean CSV/Sheets exports.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.funda.nl/zoeken/koop?selected_area=%5B%22amsterdam%22%5D"
  ],
  "maxPagesPerUrl": 10,
  "maxItems": 1000,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

Each listing - price, area, rooms, energy label, address - as a JSON item in the default dataset.

echo '{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.funda.nl/zoeken/koop?selected_area=%5B%22amsterdam%22%5D"
  ],

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,scrapesage/funda-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
