📋 Overview

Need everything about ONE apartments.com rental, not a page of search cards? This is the detail companion to a saturated field of search scrapers: paste a listing URL, listing ID, or street address and get a single, structured rental-decision dossier per property.

Why professionals choose us:

• ✅ The full rental dossier in one call: rent range, floorplans with unit-level pricing, amenities, fee schedule, pet policy, lease terms, office hours, management, assigned schools, and nearby transit — all in one row.
• ⚡ Three ways to look up: apartments.com URL, listing ID, or street address — perfect for whatever your data already has.
• 🎯 Built to enrich search output: feed the listing IDs any apartments.com search scraper returns and get a complete dossier for each.

• ✨ NEW: opt-in Walk Score, photo gallery, numeric per-unit rental costs, resident reviews, and similar-property add-ons.

🐛 Troubleshooting

A URL isn't recognized

• Use a single-listing page (the URL ends in a short code like /0smfmv0/), not a city or search page.
• City pages like apartments.com/new-york-ny/ are searches — use our Apartments.com search actor for those.

A property comes back "not found"

• Double-check the listing ID or full street address (include city, state, and ZIP).
• Freshly delisted rentals can take time to disappear or appear.

An add-on returned nothing

• Some buildings have no reviews or similar properties — you are not charged when an add-on returns no data.

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape data?

Our actors are ethical and do not extract any private user data, such as email addresses, gender, or location. They only extract what the user has chosen to share publicly. We therefore believe that our actors, when used for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe.

However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data. Personal data is protected by the GDPR in the European Union and by other regulations around the world. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers.
