#### 🎉 Expat-Dakar Property Scraper — Launch!

- **Senegal's whole property board** — all nine Immobilier categories in one actor: apartments to rent, furnished apartments, apartments for sale, houses to rent, houses for sale, land for sale, rooms to rent, and commercial premises for rent or sale.
- **Phone and WhatsApp on every search row**. The advertiser's number comes back with the listing, so a contactable lead list of Dakar agencies and landlords needs no second call per advert.
- **Region picker built from the portal's own place index**: Dakar, Thiès, Saint-Louis, Diourbel, Kaolack, Sine-Saloum, Ziguinchor, Fatick, Kaffrine and a catch-all. Regions that hold no property adverts are left out rather than offered as an empty answer.
- **Prices in CFA francs, typed as numbers**, with a floor, a ceiling or both, applied by the portal before anything is returned or billed.
- **Keyword search reaches a neighbourhood**. Almadies, Mermoz, Ngor, Point E and Sacré-Coeur have no address of their own on the portal, so the keyword field is how you get there.
- **Newest-first ordering for monitoring**. Run a slice on a schedule and diff the advert IDs to see what arrived.
- **Property Detail for the full record**: the complete seller text, the bathroom count, every photo at full resolution, and the advertiser's join date and verification badges.
- **39 typed fields**, exportable as JSON, CSV or Excel, and nullable wherever a real advert can leave them empty.

#### 💼 User Benefits

- **Price a market that has no register.** Senegal publishes no sold prices and runs no MLS, so asking prices on this board are the only public signal there is. This actor turns 3,762 of them into a table with bedrooms, floor area and neighbourhood already parsed.
- **Reach the seller, not a lead form.** Every row carries a working number, which is what separates a research export from something a sales team can act on the same morning.
- **Fill a gap in an African series.** The row layout matches our AngoCasa, Mubawab and Property24 actors, so Dakar appends to an existing multi-country dataset without a mapping step.

#### 🎯 Use Cases

- Rental and sale price benchmarking across Dakar's neighbourhoods
- Agency and landlord lead lists with direct phone and WhatsApp contact
- New-stock monitoring on a schedule, with IDs you can diff between runs
- Land and plot sourcing across Dakar, Thiès and the Petite Côte
- Diaspora and relocation research into furnished lets
- West African property market indexes and investment screening
