Realtor.ca Scraper

Pull MLS-grade property listings and licensed real-estate agent profiles from Realtor.ca at scale — prices, full Canadian addresses, GPS coordinates, photos, brokerage details, parking, amenities, and social media links across every province and territory. One actor handles both for-sale and rental listings plus the realtor directory, so you can run market analytics and agent prospecting from a single configuration. Built for Canadian real estate investors, mortgage brokers, brokerage data teams, and CRM platforms that need fresh Realtor.ca data without standing up their own collection pipeline.

Why This Scraper?

• All 13 provinces and territories, every postal code — search any Canadian city, region, or paste a Realtor.ca map URL. No need to hand-build map coordinates or chase per-province endpoints.
• Two record types in one actor — switch the mode dropdown between Property Listings and Real Estate Agents. No second actor or second subscription.
• Server-side filters that match Realtor.ca exactly — buy vs. rent, residential / commercial / farm, price min/max, minimum bedrooms, minimum bathrooms — every filter is forwarded to the official search so you only pay for matching results.
• Dense-area auto-subdivision (up to 6 levels deep) — Realtor.ca caps each query at 600 listings; the scraper recursively splits Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal bounding boxes into quadrants until every listing is captured.
• Both Realtor.ca listing ID and MLS number on every property — link rows back to your existing brokerage feeds, KW Command, or Lone Wolf systems with no manual cross-walk.
• High-resolution photo URLs (every photo, not just the cover) — direct CDN paths to the full gallery for downstream image analysis or CRM enrichment.
• Four social media links per agent — Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter/X URLs lifted from the agent's Realtor.ca card alongside name, phone, brokerage, designation, and personal website.
• Numeric and formatted prices side by side — price ("$1,249,900") for display plus priceNumeric (1249900) for sorting, charting, and BI tools.

Tips for Best Results

• Anchor on a single city for fastest runs. "Toronto, ON" or "Vancouver, BC" returns within minutes; province-level queries trigger heavy bounding-box subdivision.
• Use the map URL trick for tight neighbourhoods. Zoom into the exact polygon on realtor.ca, copy the URL from the address bar, and paste it into startUrls. The scraper reads LatitudeMax / LongitudeMin etc. directly from the URL hash.
• Filter server-side, not after the fact. priceMin, priceMax, bedroomsMin, and bathroomsMin are sent to Realtor.ca, so you only pay for matching listings instead of filtering a huge dump in your own pipeline.
• For dense urban areas, leave maxResults generous. Each Realtor.ca query caps at 600 results — Toronto and downtown Vancouver routinely exceed this and need quadrant subdivision to capture every listing.
• Sweep agents Canada-wide by leaving location empty in agents mode. The directory then iterates across all provinces and territories without any per-region setup.
• Both English and French listings appear in the same query. Realtor.ca returns Quebec listings with French descriptions in description; pair them with the structured fields (price, bedrooms, postal code) for downstream translation.
• Pair mlsNumber with listingId in your CRM. MLS numbers can be reused after a property re-lists, but listingId is unique per Realtor.ca record — use both as a composite key.
