🎬 Quick Start

Pick a mode, provide a location (or URL/ids), and run — results land in the dataset as clean JSON within seconds.

curl -X POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/sian.agency~propertyfinder-property-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_TOKEN \

🚀 Getting Started (3 Simple Steps)

Step 1: Choose a mode

searchByLocation (free text), searchByCoordinates (GPS + radius), searchByUrl (pasted search URL), or propertyDetails (ids / listing URLs).

Step 2: Set filters

Sale or rent, property types, price/area ranges, bedrooms, furnishing, completion status, amenities — or skip filters entirely.

Step 3: Run and export

Click Start. Export JSON, CSV, or Excel straight from the dataset; the run also produces an HTML market report.

That's it! In under a minute, you'll have:

• Structured listing rows with price, size, GPS, photos, agent & broker
• Optional full dossiers with contacts, RERA licenses & price trends
• A market KPI report (median price, AED/sqft, community breakdown)

🐛 Troubleshooting

No results for my location

• Check the run log — the actor prints "did you mean" location suggestions when a name doesn't resolve
• Try a broader name (Dubai instead of a specific building), then narrow with filters

A pasted URL is rejected

• Only UAE search URLs (propertyfinder.ae) are supported — other country domains won't work
• Copy the URL from the browser address bar after applying your filters

Detail enrichment didn't run

• fetchPropertyDetails requires a PAID run — FREE runs return search rows only

Fewer rows than maxResults

• The market total for your filter set may simply be smaller — the log prints the portal's total match count

⚖️ 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.
