### \[2026-09-13]

#### 🎉 MercadoLibre Property Scraper - Launch!

- **Four markets, one schema** - MercadoLibre *inmuebles* in Venezuela, Uruguay, Paraguay and Guatemala: 336,756 live property listings with one set of field names across all four.
- **Currency read per listing** - Venezuelan sellers quote dollars and bolívares side by side, so every row carries what the seller actually wrote plus a USD column with the rate and its source.
- **Rooms and area as numbers** - dormitorios, baños, covered m² and total m² each get their own column, and price per m² is worked out for you.
- **Portal's own enums** - 17 property types and 66 departments, each read from MercadoLibre's filter index per market, with live listing counts beside every option.
- **Detail mode on demand** - the full seller description, the complete attribute table, every photo and the map coordinates, billed only when you ask for it.
- **Stable listing IDs** - MLV, MLU, MPY and MGT ID spaces that never collide, so two runs diff cleanly on `listingId`.

#### 💎 User Benefits

- The only structured Venezuelan property dataset available anywhere, against a 150,707-listing corpus.
- Guatemala (707) and Paraguay (600) can be swept whole rather than sampled, so weekly runs give a real before-and-after.
- Comparables are sortable the moment the run ends — no regular expressions over listing titles, no unit guessing.
- Charged per row returned; failed and empty results are never billed.

#### 🎯 Use Cases

- Valuation analysts pricing Venezuelan property where the national portals went dark.
- Holiday-rental operators tracking Punta del Este through the alquiler temporada season.
- Regional agencies sweeping Guatemala and Paraguay end to end every week.
- Portals and CRMs taking a nightly delta of new, re-priced and withdrawn stock.
- Developers plotting asking price per m² at neighbourhood resolution from the map coordinates.
