## Changelog

All notable changes to the Spitogatos Scraper will be documented in this file.

### \[2026-09-18]

#### 🐛 Fixed

- **Runs no longer fail at the first step when the site's visitor check is slow to clear.** Spitogatos puts a browser check in front of every visitor, and occasionally the first pass through it did not complete — the run then stopped immediately and returned nothing, even though a retry moments later worked fine. The check is now attempted several times before a run gives up, so an intermittent challenge costs a few extra seconds instead of the whole run. Runs that genuinely cannot get through still stop quickly rather than hanging.

### \[2026-09-06]

#### 🎉 Spitogatos Scraper - Launch!

- **Greek property search, all of Greece** - Every live advert on Spitogatos.gr for sale or to rent, from a whole region down to a single Athens neighbourhood, with 30 properties per request and no pagination ceiling.
- **Four asset classes in one Actor** - Homes, commercial property, land and the odd categories such as parking spaces, each with its own property types.
- **24 server-side filters** - Price, size in square metres, rooms, floor range, construction year, ΠΕΑ energy class, first-listed and last-updated windows, price cuts only, and 19 must-have features from lift and parking to penthouse and step-free access.
- **Estate agency contacts** - Agency phone numbers, office address, website and contact name attached to your rows, looked up once per agency and billed once per unique agency rather than once per property.
- **Property detail on demand** - Street address, ΠΕΑ energy class, construction year, heating system and fuel, flooring, window frames, glazing, the complete photo set and around 130 amenity attributes.
- **Greek text end to end** - Descriptions, place names and agency names come back as the portal holds them, with a switch that turns Αθήνα - Κέντρο into Athens - Center.
- **Paste a Spitogatos search link** - Build the search on the site and hand over the finished URL. Every filter on it is read back and reused.

#### 💎 User Benefits

- Greek real estate data as flat rows in JSON, CSV or Excel, with no account, no API key and nothing to configure beyond a place name.
- From $1.20 per 1,000 properties, charged per delivered row and never for a failed one. The median across the Spitogatos actors on the Store is $3.00.
- Price per square metre is calculated on every row, so rental yield and regional price indices need no second data source.
- Coded fields arrive readable: the ΠΕΑ grade as A+ through G, the storey as a real floor number, and property still being built flagged instead of dated to the year 2155.
- A run report lands in the key-value store with the counts, the failures and what the run cost.

#### 🎯 Use Cases

- Market analysts tracking asking prices and price cuts across Athens, Thessaloniki and the islands week by week.
- Sales teams building estate agency lead lists with phone numbers, deduplicated by agency and billed once each.
- Investors modelling rental yield in Koukaki, Chania or Mykonos from sale and rent sweeps of the same neighbourhood.
- Retrofit and heat-pump installers targeting pre-1980 stock by construction year and ΠΕΑ energy class for Εξοικονομώ grant work.
- Relocation advisers and golden-visa consultants shortlisting qualifying property with coordinates, size and photos on every row.
- Agencies running a scheduled daily sweep of adverts first listed in the last 24 hours to see new supply before their competitors.
