OnTheMarket Scraper

Pull UK property listings from OnTheMarket at scale — asking prices, full addresses, bedroom and bathroom counts, tenure, estate-agent contacts, map coordinates, and every photo URL for homes for sale, to rent, and newly built. Search by town, postcode, or area name, or paste OnTheMarket URLs straight from the site. Built for property investors, estate agencies, and proptech teams who need clean, structured UK listing data without copy-pasting from search pages one card at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• For sale, to rent, and new homes in one actor — flip a single dropdown to switch listing mode, or mix all three in a run via pasted URLs.
• 13 property-type filters — flats, detached, semi-detached, terraced, bungalows, town houses, cottages, character properties, mews, land & farms, and more, combinable in a single search.
• 10 search-radius bands — tighten to "this area only" or widen from 1/4 mile out to 40 miles around any town or postcode.
• Estate-agent contacts on every listing — agency name and phone number captured alongside each property, ready for a lead list.
• Map coordinates for every property — latitude and longitude on each row, so listings drop straight onto a map or into a geospatial pipeline.
• ~26 fields per listing — formatted price plus a numeric value and qualifier ("Guide Price", "OIEO"), tenure (Freehold/Leasehold with years remaining), days on market, feature bullets, and all photo URLs.
• Rental-aware output — monthly rent (pcm), short-term vs long-term tenancy filtering, and lettings fee details on every to-rent listing.
• "Recently added" windows — restrict to listings added in the last 24 hours, 3 days, or 7 days to catch fresh stock the moment it lists.
• Two ways to start — type a free-text location (town, city, postcode, or area) or paste refined OnTheMarket search URLs that carry their own filters.

Tips for Best Results

• Start small — set maxResults to 50–200 on your first run to confirm the data matches your needs, then scale up.
• Split big cities into postcode-area searches — each individual search returns up to ~1,000 listings, so a busy city like London is best run as several postcode-district searches (e.g. "SW1", "SE1", "E1") to capture deeper inventory.
• Replicate a refined on-site search with Start URLs — set up the exact filters you want on OnTheMarket, then paste the resulting URL; its filters are applied for you, no need to re-enter them here.
• Use "Last 24 hours" for fresh stock — pair addedToSite with a tight location to build a daily new-listings feed before the rest of the market sees it.
• Narrow filters to go deeper, not wider — tightening price, bedroom, or property-type filters surfaces stock that the ~1,000-per-search ceiling would otherwise hide on a broad query.
• Combine inputs — mix several locations in searchLocations and pasted URLs in startUrls in the same run; everything lands in one dataset.
• This actor covers the UK — OnTheMarket is a UK property portal, so locations should be UK towns, cities, postcodes, or areas.

Pricing

From $1.70 per 1,000 results — pay only for the listings you collect. No compute or time-based charges — you pay per result, plus a small fixed per-run start fee. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows total cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.20	$0.19	$0.18	$0.17
