Zillow Property Detail API — Address, URL & ZPID Lookup 🏠

🎉 The Zillow API replacement for single-property lookups — resolve any home by address, URL, or ZPID into clean JSON

Built for real estate developers, PropTech teams, investors, appraisers, and analysts

---

📋 Overview

Need a home's price, Zestimate, beds/baths, tax history, or listing agent — but Zillow retired its public API? This actor is the drop-in replacement. Give it a street address, a Zillow listing URL, or a numeric ZPID and it returns one clean, structured JSON record per property — no account, no scraping headaches, no API key of your own.

Why thousands of real estate teams choose us:

• ✅ Three input types, auto-detected: mix street addresses, Zillow URLs, and ZPIDs freely in one run — each row is classified and routed automatically.
• ⚡ Two detail tiers in one actor: a cheap standard lookup (core fields) or a premium full-intelligence payload (180+ fields) — pick cost vs depth per run.
• 🎯 Lead-gen ready: the premium tier surfaces the listing agent and broker (name, phone, email, license number, MLS ID).
• 💰 Never charged for dead properties: a not-found lookup is skipped and billed at zero — you only pay for real results.
• 💎 Full property intelligence: price history, tax history, schools, rent Zestimate, lot size, home type, coordinates, and RESO facts on the premium tier.
• ✨ NEW: single-actor standard + premium tiers so you can run high-volume cheap lookups and deep-dive enrichment side by side.

✨ Features

• 🏠 Address / URL / ZPID lookup: resolve properties by whatever identifier you have — no need to convert between them first.
• 📊 Standard tier: price, Zestimate, bedrooms, bathrooms, living area (sqft), year built, days on market, structured address, and the canonical Zillow URL.
• 💎 Premium tier: everything in standard PLUS tax history, price history, schools, rent Zestimate, last-sold price, lot size, home type, latitude/longitude, county, parcel ID, and 180+ RESO property facts.
• 👤 Agent & broker contacts (premium): listing agent name, phone, email, license number, MLS name & ID, and co-agent.
• 🔢 Bulk in one run: pass an array of identifiers or load a large list from a text file.
• 🧾 Clean, typed output: numbers are numbers, addresses are structured — ready for spreadsheets, dashboards, and models.
• 📄 HTML run report: cohort medians (price, Zestimate, $/sqft) and state / city / home-type coverage.
• 🔁 Automatic de-duplication: the same property resolved from different identifiers is only returned once.

Q: What's the difference between standard and premium? A: Standard returns core fields (price, Zestimate, beds/baths/sqft, year, days on market). Premium adds tax & price history, schools, rent Zestimate, agent contacts, lot size, coordinates, and 180+ RESO facts.

Q: Do I get charged if a property isn't found? A: No. A not-found lookup is skipped and billed at zero — you only pay for real results.

Q: How many properties can I process? A: FREE plan: up to 5 per run. PAID plan: unlimited.

Q: What output formats are available? A: JSON, CSV, and Excel — export directly from the Apify dataset.

Q: Is this legal? A: Yes — only publicly available property listing data is returned. See the legal section below.

🐛 Troubleshooting

A lookup returns "no property found"

• Verify the ZPID or address points to a live Zillow property.
• For addresses, include city and state (and ZIP where possible) for the most reliable match.

Premium fields are empty

• The premium tier requires a paying Apify plan — FREE runs fall back to standard automatically.
• Some fields (e.g. agent contacts) are only populated for actively listed properties.

A URL isn't accepted

• Provide a https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/... link that contains a ZPID (apartment/building URLs are not supported).

⚖️ 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.

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