Property24 Scraper

Pull live property listings from Property24 — South Africa's largest property portal — at scale, in clean rows with prices in Rand, agent contacts, and ZA-specific costs like levies and rates & taxes. Search any of the country's 9 provinces by suburb, city, or region name, or paste a Property24 URL to mirror an exact on-site search. Built for SA estate agents, property investors, and market analysts who need fresh, structured Property24 data without copying listings off the website one page at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• 3 deal types in one actor — for sale, to rent, and recently sold, switched with a single dropdown across all 9 South African provinces.
• Search by suburb, city, region or province name — Property24's location index runs to 9,000+ named areas, over 6,000 of them suburbs, and the actor resolves any of them from plain text; pass "Suburb, City" to separate same-named suburbs in different provinces.
• 7 property types — house, apartment/flat, townhouse, vacant land, farm, commercial, and industrial, filtered individually or in combination.
• South-Africa-native cost fields — every detailed listing returns monthly levies and ratesAndTaxes in ZAR, the two numbers that decide a sectional-title deal's true monthly cost.
• Prices both ways — a clean numeric price for sorting and maths plus the exact on-page priceDisplay string ("R 2 450 000"), with currency set to ZAR. New-build project rows are labelled development and carry priceFrom/priceTo instead, so a R10m+ search never shows you a R1.8m entry price.
• Two size dimensions — floorSize (building m²) and landSize (erf m²) captured separately, so you can underwrite by build size or stand size.
• Listing agent + agency contacts — agentName, agencyName, agency logo and profile URL, plus a full agents array with each agent's name, photo, profile link, and phone/WhatsApp availability flags (detail mode) — ready for lead lists.
• 14 filters that map to Property24's own search — price min/max, bedrooms, bathrooms, parking, floor & erf size ranges, furnished/unfurnished, rental period, pet-friendly, garden, pool, flatlet, and 5 sort orders.
• Paste-a-URL mode — drop any Property24 search or suburb URL straight in and the actor honours every filter already baked into that link, including combos the form doesn't expose.
• Full photo galleries + amenity lists on demand — the optional detail mode opens each listing for its complete description, the whole photo gallery (typically 20+ images, not just the thumbnail), and the full per-room features list (security, fibre, balcony, built-in cupboards, and dozens more).

Tips for Best Results

• Start with maxResults set to 10–50 to preview a search's shape, then raise it or set 0 for everything.
• Disambiguate common suburb names by passing "Suburb, City" — e.g. "Sea Point, Cape Town" — so the right area is picked.
• Use Recently Sold for comparables: sold prices are the gold standard for valuations and CMA reports, though sold rows are richest at suburb level rather than city level.
• Power-user tip: build your perfect search on property24.com, copy the resulting URL into startUrls, and the actor reproduces it filter-for-filter — including combinations the form fields don't cover.
• Filter on recordType == "listing" when you want individual homes only. Property24 mixes new-build project cards into results pages, and those rows describe a whole development priced from priceFrom to priceTo rather than one property.
• Keep includeListingDetails on whenever you need levies, rates & taxes, full descriptions, or every gallery image; switch it off for a faster, lighter sweep of just the results-page fields.
• For rentals, set rentalPeriod to monthly and use furnished to separate furnished from unfurnished stock cleanly.
• Pass several entries in searchLocations to cover multiple suburbs or cities in a single run — each is searched independently.

Pricing

From $0.65 per 1,000 results — undercuts comparable Property24 actors on the market. No compute or time-based charges — you pay per result, plus a small fixed $0.005 per-run start fee. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows the result cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.078	$0.075	$0.070	$0.065
1,000	$0.78	$0.75	$0.70	$0.65
10,000	$7.80	$7.50	$7.00	$6.50
100,000	$78.00	$75.00	$70.00	$65.00

A result is one property listing row. Add the flat $0.005 start fee once per run — a 1,000-result run at Gold is $0.655 all-in, and the fee stays immaterial at any real volume.
