Domain.com.au Scraper 🇦🇺 Buy · Rent · Sold · Auction Data

🎉 The Domain.com.au scraper that ships structured schools, 5-year market insights and A$ median KPIs — not just a raw listing dump

Built for Australian property investors, buyer's agents, and PropTech teams who model markets, not just collect rows

---

📋 Overview

Pull every Domain.com.au listing in your target Australian market — for-sale, to-rent, and recently-sold (with sold price + sold date) — and get ready-to-model A$ KPIs alongside the raw data. Rank suburbs by median price, comp valuations against the sold archive, and export the lot to JSON / CSV / Excel before your next inspection round.

Why property professionals choose this actor:

• ✅ Structured, not raw: typed schools[], 5-year marketInsights, and floorplans on detail enrichment — where the $0.001 raw scrapers hand you unstructured JSON
• ⚡ Analysis-ready in one run: median sale/rent/sold, price distributions, and suburb + property-type breakdowns computed in-actor and delivered as an HTML market report
• 🎯 Four search modes: free-text suburb, coordinates + radius, a pasted Domain.com.au URL, or a bulk-suburb sweep — with cross-page propertyId deduplication
• 💰 Pay-per-result pricing: charged per listing extracted; a hard-capped FREE tier lets you test the full feature set with no credit card
• 💎 Sold + auction coverage: pull the recently-sold archive with final sold price + sold date, and flag listings heading to auction
• ✨ Agent & agency intel: agency name, logo, brand colour, and listing agents captured on every row

---

✨ Features

• 🖼 Full media: photo counts, complete photo URL lists, and floorplans on detail enrichment
• 🔨 Auction + sold data: auction flags plus the recently-sold archive with sold price and date
• 🔁 Automatic dedup + pagination: cross-page propertyId deduplication and auto-paginated result draining

Pick a search mode, give it a location (or a Domain.com.au URL), choose sale / rent / sold, and run. Results stream into the Apify dataset with A$ KPIs computed on top.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/sian.agency~domain-au-property-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \

🚀 Getting Started (3 Simple Steps)

Step 1: Choose a search mode

Pick bylocation (free-text suburb), bycoordinates (lat/lon + radius), byurl (paste a Domain.com.au search URL), or bulklocations (array of suburbs, PAID).

Step 2: Set your market

Enter your suburb / coordinates / URL, pick listingType (sale, rent, sold, or all), and add optional filters (price, beds, baths, parking, property type, keywords).

Step 3: Run and export

Launch the actor. Toggle includeDetails (PAID) for schools, floorplans and market insights.

That's it! In a couple of minutes, you'll have:

• A clean dataset of Domain.com.au listings with 19 structured fields per row
• A$ market KPIs (median price, distributions, suburb breakdowns) in an HTML report
• Exportable JSON / CSV / Excel for your comps, models, or CRM

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many listings can I extract? A: FREE tier: 25 per run. PAID tier: unlimited, with auto-pagination until your maxResults cap or the search is fully drained.

Q: Does it cover Australia only? A: Yes. Domain.com.au is a major Australian property portal; this actor covers Australian listings only. For US property data, use Redfin Property Scraper or Zillow Property Scraper.

Q: Can I get sold prices and sold dates? A: Yes. Set listingType: "sold" to pull the recently-sold archive; each row carries the final sold price and sold-date stamp.

Q: What extra data does detail enrichment add? A: With includeDetails on (PAID), each listing gains the full description, all photos, floorplans, typed nearby schools, and 5-year market insights (price series, price guide, recent-sales band, price direction).

Q: What output formats are available? A: JSON, CSV, and Excel — export directly from the Apify dataset. An HTML market report is saved to the key-value store.

Q: Is this legal? A: We only extract publicly available data from Domain.com.au — no auth bypass, no private content. You are responsible for complying with Domain.com.au's Terms of Service and applicable Australian law. See the legal section below.

Q: How do I search a precise area? A: Use bycoordinates with a latitude, longitude, and radius (km), or paste a Domain.com.au search-results URL with byurl.

🐛 Troubleshooting

Location not resolving / zero results

• Domain.com.au is strict about location strings. Try "Sydney NSW 2000" (suburb + state + postcode) instead of "Sydney".
• For ambiguous suburb names (Richmond exists in NSW, VIC, and QLD), always include the state, or pass the optional suburbId.

byurl mode rejected the URL

• The URL must be a Domain.com.au search-results page starting with https://www.domain.com.au/.
• Single-listing URLs are not search URLs — use bylocation or bycoordinates to find listings.

Detail enrichment returned nothing

• Detail enrichment is a PAID feature and is disabled on the FREE tier.
• A small number of listings may not expose full detail; those rows still include the search-level data.

Radius pulling neighbouring suburbs

• radius is in kilometres, capped at 50. In dense metro areas, a large radius reaches neighbouring postcodes — narrow the radius for a tighter market.

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape data?

Our actors are ethical and do not extract any private user data. They only extract what Domain.com.au has chosen to publish publicly — listing data, agency contact blocks, property descriptions, and photos that any visitor can see by browsing the public site.

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 (including the Australian Privacy Act 1988). 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.

You are also responsible for complying with Domain.com.au's Terms of Service when using the data downstream.

You can also read Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.
