How to Use

1. Build search URLs — Navigate to MetroCuadrado.com and filter for properties by city, type, price, bedrooms, or other criteria. Copy the search result URL.
2. Add URLs to input — Paste one or multiple search URLs into the urls array.
3. Set scrape limits — Configure max_items_per_url (e.g., 200 for comprehensive scrapes or 50 for quick tests).
4. Enable error handling — Keep ignore_url_failures: true to handle temporary network issues without stopping the run.
5. Run and export — Start the scraper and download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel once complete.

Common tips:

• Narrower search filters (by city, price range, or property type) yield faster, more targeted results.
• Use max_items_per_url: 200 to capture most listings per search page.
• WhatsApp and phone contact fields enable direct outreach to agents or owners.
