## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Realestate.com.au Scraper

**Turn Australia and New Zealand's biggest property portals into structured, ready-to-use data.** Pull live listings from realestate.com.au and realestate.co.nz with prices, addresses, bedrooms, agent contacts and photos. Search by URL or by filters, get clean JSON in seconds.

### How it works

![How it works](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/PeRK22KeCwW9jYpYi/records/how-it-works-v1.png)

### ✨ Why teams choose this over other realestate.com.au scrapers

Running scrapers that fail halfway through a run? Paying extra every time a search gets big? Only getting half the fields you need?

- 🇦🇺🇳🇿 **Two countries, one actor.** Cover realestate.com.au (buy, rent, sold) and realestate.co.nz (sale, rent) from a single run. No need to buy and stitch together two separate tools.
- 🛡️ **Runs that finish.** Reliable extraction that pulls thousands of listings in one pass without stalling, so you get the whole search, not the first page.
- 💸 **Pay less per listing.** Priced to undercut other realestate scrapers. You pay only for the listings you receive, and proxies are included in that price.
- 📇 **Agent contacts included.** Get the agent name and phone number on every listing, ready to feed your CRM or lead pipeline.
- 🖼️ **The full picture.** Bedrooms, bathrooms, car spaces, land and floor size, property type, map coordinates, the complete photo gallery and the full listing description.
- 🔗 **Search your way.** Paste a search URL straight from the website, drop in a single property link, or just pick a country, channel and suburb.

### 💻 Integrations

Feed listings straight into your stack.

**Python**

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("realestate-com-au-scraper").call(run_input={
    "startUrls": [{"url": "https://www.realestate.com.au/buy/in-sydney,+nsw+2000/list-1"}],
    "includeDetails": True,
    "maxItems": 200,
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["address"], item["price"])
```

**JavaScript**

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('realestate-com-au-scraper').call({
    startUrls: [{ url: 'https://www.realestate.co.nz/residential/sale/auckland' }],
    maxItems: 300,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((i) => console.log(i.address, i.price));
```

Connect the dataset to Google Sheets, Airtable, Zapier or Make, or push it into your own database.

### 📈 Performance

| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Coverage | realestate.com.au (buy, rent, sold) and realestate.co.nz (sale, rent) |
| Fields per listing | Up to 25, including agent contact and map coordinates |
| Photos | Full gallery per property with full details on |
| Input options | Search URL, property URL, or country plus location |
| Export | JSON, CSV, Excel, or API |

### 💡 Tips for best results

- **Copy the URL from your browser.** Run any search on the website, then paste that exact URL into `startUrls`. Filters in the URL are respected.
- **Turn on `includeDetails` for lead lists.** It adds the agent phone number, description, map coordinates and the full photo set to each realestate.com.au listing.
- **Set `maxItems` to control cost.** It caps results per search, so a two country run with two URLs returns up to twice that number.
- **Split large areas.** For a whole state, run one search per city or region to keep each result set fast and complete.
- **Use `searchByFilters` for quick jobs.** Pick `country`, `channel` and `location` when you do not want to build a URL.

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need an account or login?**
No. The scraper reads publicly available listing data. No login, no API key.

**Does it cover both Australia and New Zealand?**
Yes. Use realestate.com.au URLs for Australia and realestate.co.nz URLs for New Zealand, in the same run.

**Can I scrape sold listings?**
Yes, for realestate.com.au. Use a sold search URL or set `channel` to `sold`.

**How do I get agent phone numbers?**
Turn on `includeDetails`. Agent name and phone are added to each realestate.com.au listing.

**What export formats are available?**
JSON, CSV and Excel, plus the Apify API for direct integration.

**How do I limit how much I scrape?**
Set `maxItems`. It caps the number of listings returned per search.
