Real Estate Average Price Calculator

A powerful Apify Actor that aggregates real estate data by ZIP code and calculates average rent and sale prices organized by property type and bedroom count. This Actor processes data from multiple real estate providers (Realtor.com, Zillow) and provides clean, organized pricing insights for any ZIP code in the United States.

🏠 What it does

This Actor takes a ZIP code as input and returns comprehensive real estate pricing analysis including:

  • Average prices organized by property type (Apartment, House, Condo, etc.) and bedroom count
  • Processing statistics showing data quality metrics and filtering results
  • Organized listings with detailed property information
  • Raw property data for further analysis

The Actor filters out suspicious pricing, handles provider-specific data normalization, and processes bedroom ranges to provide accurate market insights.

📊 Output Format

The Actor provides data in multiple views:

Price Analysis Overview

  • Organized averages by property type and bedroom count
  • Processing statistics (total processed, excluded properties, data quality metrics)
  • Clean, formatted pricing data ready for analysis

Raw Property Listings

  • Original unprocessed property data from real estate aggregators
  • Full property details including addresses, URLs, and provider information

🚀 Key Features

  • Multi-Provider Data: Aggregates data from Realtor.com and Zillow
  • Smart Filtering: Removes suspicious pricing and unwanted property types
  • Bedroom Range Processing: Handles properties with bedroom ranges (e.g., 2-3 bedrooms)
  • Data Quality Metrics: Provides transparency into data processing and filtering
  • Normalized Property Types: Standardizes property type names across providers
  • Price Validation: Filters out unrealistic pricing (too low/high)rape single-page in Python template

A template for web scraping data from a single web page in Python. The URL of the web page is passed in via input, which is defined by the input schema. The template uses the HTTPX to get the HTML of the page and the Beautiful Soup to parse the data from it. The data are then stored in a dataset where you can easily access them.

The scraped data in this template are page headings but you can easily edit the code to scrape whatever you want from the page.
