Tips for Best Results

• Use MagicBricks search result pages, not individual property detail pages or blog pages.
• Rental URLs with for-rent in the path are detected and handled correctly.
• Start with results_wanted: 20 and max_pages: 1 to validate the output before scaling up.
• The scraper stops automatically when a page returns no listings or no new unique listings.
• Keep a residential proxy for consistent cloud runs. No country filter is required; US, GB, and unfiltered exits worked in testing. A datacenter proxy works intermittently. Direct requests from Apify cloud are blocked.
• If a run returns no data, check the run log for the diagnostics line. It lists every source that was tried.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of MagicBricks URLs can I use?

Use MagicBricks property search result URLs. Canonical result URLs, ?page=2 variants, and /page-2 variants are all normalized automatically before scraping begins.

How many listings can I collect?

The scraper collects up to the number specified in results_wanted. There is no hard upper limit, but very large collections need more pages and more proxy traffic.

Does the scraper work for rental listings?

Yes. URLs containing for-rent or ending in pppfr are detected as rental searches.

Do I have to use a proxy?

Residential proxies are the reliable option, and no country filter is required. US, GB, and unfiltered exits worked in testing. A datacenter proxy (Apify Proxy with no group) can work but is less reliable. Direct requests from Apify cloud are blocked by MagicBricks with HTTP 403, so run without a proxy only from a network that MagicBricks accepts. The default input uses residential proxies without a country filter.

Will empty fields appear in the dataset?

No. The scraper removes null, undefined, and empty string values before saving each item. Only fields with actual data appear in the output.

Does the actor collect images and landmarks?

Yes. When the listing page provides them, image URLs and nearby landmarks are included in the output. Images are returned as absolute URLs for direct access.

What property types are supported?

Villas, apartments, flats, houses, plots, shops, and office space are supported. The scraper reads the filters from the page itself and uses the URL path only as a fallback.

What happens if a page has no more listings?

The scraper stops pagination when a page returns no listings or no new unique listings. This prevents infinite loops and wasted requests on empty pages.
