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.

Hubzu.com is a US-based online real estate auction platform specializing in foreclosure, bank-owned (REO), and distressed properties. Buyers and investors bid on residential and commercial listings across all 50 states. Tracking these auctions manually is impractical at scale — the **Hubzu.com Property Search Scraper** automates extraction, delivering structured property data ready for analysis. --- ### Overview The **Hubzu Property Scraper** collects detailed listing data from Hubzu search and auction pages, capturing everything from bid history to geolocation coordinates. It is built for: - **Real estate investors** monitoring auction opportunities by region - **Data analysts** building foreclosure market datasets - **Proptech developers** feeding property data into valuation or mapping tools - **Researchers** studying distressed housing market trends Key advantages: configurable item limits, fault-tolerant URL handling, and a rich 90+ field output covering pricing, auction mechanics, property specs, and listing metadata. --- ### Input Format The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with three parameters: ```json { "urls": ["https://www.hubzu.com/tx/auctions?pageNumber=2"], "ignore_url_failures": true, "max_items_per_url": 50 } ```` | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `urls` | `array` | — | One or more Hubzu property list/search page URLs to scrape. Supports pagination URLs (e.g., `?pageNumber=2`). Add URLs one by one or use bulk edit. | | `ignore_url_failures` | `boolean` | `true` | If `true`, the scraper continues running when a URL fails instead of stopping the entire run. Recommended for bulk jobs. | | `max_items_per_url` | `integer` | `20` | Maximum number of listings to collect per URL. Set higher (e.g., `50`) for denser search pages. | > **Tip:** Use state or city-filtered Hubzu URLs (e.g., `/tx/auctions`, `/fl/auctions`) and increment `pageNumber` to crawl paginated results systematically. *** ### Output Format **Sample output** ```json { "property_category": "SC", "property_status": "ACTV", "id": null, "value": null, "property_id": "94317656486", "listing_id":

How to Use 1. **Get search URLs** — Navigate to Hubzu.com, filter by state/city/type, and copy the resulting page URL (e.g., `https://www.hubzu.com/fl/auctions?pageNumber=1`). 2. **Build your input** — Add URLs to the `urls` array. Increment `pageNumber` for pagination. 3. **Set limits** — Use `max_items_per_url` to control volume per page (up to 50 is typical per Hubzu page). 4. **Enable fault tolerance** — Keep `ignore_url_failures: true` for multi-URL runs. 5. **Run and export** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel. **Tips:** - Hubzu paginates results; scrape multiple `pageNumber` values in a single run by adding all page URLs. - Filter URLs by state slug (`/tx/`, `/ca/`) to segment data by geography. - If a URL returns empty results, confirm it loads correctly in a browser first. *** ### Use Cases & Business Value - **Auction monitoring:** Track new and ending listings in target markets daily - **Investment screening:** Filter by bed/bath count, price, and occupancy to shortlist deals - **Market research:** Analyze foreclosure volume and pricing trends by region - **Portfolio tools:** Feed data into custom dashboards or valuation models The Hubzu Property Scraper turns paginated auction search pages into structured, analysis-ready datasets — eliminating hours of manual browsing and copy-pasting. *** ### Conclusion The **Hubzu.com Property Search Scraper** is an essential tool for anyone working with US foreclosure and auction data.
