Biddit Scraper

Extract every active property auction from Biddit.be — Belgium's official notarial online auction platform — into structured JSON with prices, bids, notary contacts, and full property details.

What is Biddit Scraper?

Biddit Scraper lets you extract structured real estate auction data from Belgium's only official online notary auction platform, helping you find undervalued properties, track auction activity, and automate market research — all without manual browsing.

• Find investment opportunities: extract all active auctions with starting prices, current bids, and estimated values to spot properties selling below market value
• Monitor auction activity by region: track how many properties are auctioned per province, average selling prices, and bidding patterns across Belgium
• Build automated alerts: schedule daily runs and get notified when new properties matching your criteria appear on Biddit
• Analyze historical sales: include closed auctions with final selling prices to build datasets for market analysis, valuation models, or academic research
• Feed your CRM or dashboard: export structured data to Google Sheets, Airtable, or any BI tool via Apify integrations

Biddit.be has no public API, no RSS feed, and no export feature. This scraper is the only way to get structured data out of the platform. No other Apify actor covers Biddit.

How to scrape Biddit.be auctions

The input is simple: choose your filters and hit run. You can configure the scraper through the Apify Console UI or programmatically via the API.

Filters

Filter	Options	Description
Province	All provinces, Antwerpen, Oost-Vlaanderen, West-Vlaanderen, Vlaams-Brabant, Limburg, Brussels, Brabant Wallon, Hainaut, Liège, Luxembourg, Namur	Target a specific Belgian province or scrape all
Property type	House, Apartment, Land, Garage, Office, Industrial, Commercial, Other	Narrow down to one property category
Sale type	Public Auction (openbare verkoop), Private Sale (uit de hand), Annuity Sale (lijfrente)	Filter by auction method
Include closed sales	true / false	Include sold/withdrawn properties with final selling prices. Great for historical analysis
Scrape full details	true / false	Fetch descriptions, all images, notary contact, estimated prices. Adds ~1 request per listing but gives much richer data
Max results	1 – 5,000	Limit the number of listings returned
Language	Nederlands / Français	Controls titles, descriptions, and addresses

Tips for best results

• Start broad, then narrow: run with all provinces and all types first to see what's available, then filter down
• Use includeClosedSales: true for market research: this gives you historical selling prices, which are the most valuable data for valuation models
• Leave scrapeDetails: true (default): the extra data (notary contact, estimated price, full description, all photos) is worth the slightly longer run time
• Schedule daily runs to track new auctions as they appear — typically 10-30 new listings per day across Belgium

Output

Results are stored in a dataset that you can download in JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML format directly from the Apify Console.

FAQ

What is Biddit.be?

Biddit.be is Belgium's official online auction platform operated by the Royal Federation of Belgian Notaries (Fednot). All sales are legally binding notarial transactions. It's the only platform in Belgium where notaries can conduct public property sales online.

How does Biddit Scraper work?

It queries Biddit's internal search API (the same one the website uses) and optionally fetches detail pages for each listing. No browser automation is needed — it's all HTTP requests, which makes it fast, reliable, and cheap.

Can I get historical selling prices?

Yes. Set includeClosedSales: true to include sold and withdrawn properties. Closed auctions include the final sellingPrice, which is the actual sale price recorded by the notary.

How often are new auctions posted on Biddit?

Typically 10-30 new listings appear per day across Belgium. Schedule a daily run to stay on top of new opportunities.

Can I scrape auctions in French?

Yes. Set the language input to "fr" to get all titles, descriptions, and addresses in French instead of Dutch.

Is it legal to scrape Biddit?

This scraper extracts publicly available auction data that Biddit.be displays to all visitors. The data is factual (prices, addresses, dates) and does not contain private personal information. As with any scraping tool, use the data responsibly and in compliance with applicable laws.

Limitations

• Belgium only. Every listing on Biddit.be is a notarial sale under Belgian law.
• No bid history. Individual bid amounts per listing are not exposed by the API — only the current price and starting price are available.
• Some fresh listings may be incomplete. If a notary hasn't uploaded descriptions or photos yet, those fields will be empty.
• Estimated price and notary contact require scrapeDetails: true.
