## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## French Real Estate Sales (DVF) — Prices, Surfaces & €/m²

**Every real French property sale, from the official land registry.** Give it a commune name, postal code or INSEE code and get structured transaction records — **sale price, address, property type, surface, rooms, land, and €/m²** — from the government's *Demandes de Valeurs Foncières* (DVF) open data.

Built for **property valuation, real-estate market analysis, proptech, investment sourcing, and AI agents** (works via API and MCP).

### Why this actor

- ✅ **Official data** — the DGFiP/Etalab geo-DVF dataset. Real recorded sales, not estimates or listings.
- ✅ **Query how you think** — by commune name (`Bordeaux`), postal code (`75011`) or INSEE code (`33063`). Paris, Lyon and Marseille are auto-expanded to their arrondissements.
- ✅ **€/m² computed for you** — plus clean address, geocoordinates, surface, rooms and land area.
- ✅ **Real filters** — property type, price range, minimum surface, standard-sales-only, and year (2021–2025).
- ✅ **Fair pricing** — pay per transaction returned.

### Use cases

- **Estimate a property's value** from comparable nearby sales (€/m² by type and area).
- **Market analysis** — price trends and volumes by commune, arrondissement or department.
- **Investment sourcing** — filter by budget and surface across multiple areas at once.
- **Enrichment** — attach real transaction history to an address or parcel.
- **AI agents** — ask Claude/Cursor via MCP: *"average €/m² for 2-room flats sold in Bordeaux in 2024?"*

### Input

```json
{
    "locations": ["Bordeaux", "75011", "33063"],
    "years": ["2023", "2024"],
    "propertyTypes": ["Appartement", "Maison"],
    "minPrice": 100000,
    "minSurface": 30,
    "onlySales": true,
    "maxResults": 1000
}
````

`locations` accepts commune names, postal codes and INSEE codes, mixed freely.

### Output (one record per transaction line)

    "source": "DVF",

| Transaction found | Per transaction returned |

### FAQ

**Where does the data come from?** The official geo-DVF dataset published by Etalab from DGFiP records (`files.data.gouv.fr/geo-dvf`). It covers metropolitan France and most of the DOM; Alsace-Moselle notary data is not in DVF.

**How recent is it?** DVF is published twice a year; this actor serves years 2021–2025. Sales can take a few months to appear after signing.

**Why several rows for one sale?** A single mutation can span multiple lots/parcels; each line is one property component. Records are deduplicated by mutation + parcel + type + surface.

**Do Paris/Lyon/Marseille work?** Yes — a name or postal code for these cities is automatically mapped to the correct arrondissement(s).

**Does it work with AI agents?** Yes — exposed via REST API and **MCP**.
