ERA Portugal Property Scraper

Discover public ERA Portugal property listings from buyer-facing inputs: location, operation, property type, and result limit. The Actor returns structured listing rows with prices, area, price per square meter, rooms, main image, image gallery, features, agency name, and listing URLs.

This is a discovery Actor. You do not need to provide search result URLs.

Why Use This Actor

Use this Actor when you need a clean real estate dataset from ERA Portugal without manually building search URLs or copying listings from the website.

It is useful for:

• real estate lead discovery by Portuguese city or region
• sale and rental inventory checks from ERA agencies
• price and area comparison across public ERA listings
• monitoring supply in Lisbon, Porto, Faro, Braga, and other markets
• TroveVault pipelines that combine several property portals into one dataset

What It Extracts

Each dataset row can include:

• platform, listingId, title, and url
• operation and propertyType
• price, currency, priceText, and pricePerM2
• areaM2, bedrooms, and bathrooms
• address, city, and country
• description
• features, such as elevator, virtual tour, parking, energy class, business status, highlight, or development status
• sellerName
• mainImage and images
• scrapedAt
• runId when supplied in the input

Fields are only populated when they are publicly visible or can be safely inferred from the ERA listing data.

Input

{
  "location": "Lisbon, Portugal",
  "operation": "sale",
  "propertyType": "apartment",
  "maxItems": 3,
  "datasetId": "",
  "runId": ""
}

Input Fields

• location - City or city plus country to search. City-level searches are recommended for stable results, for example Lisbon, Portugal, Porto, or Faro.
• operation - Dropdown. Use sale for properties for sale or rent for rental listings.
• propertyType - Dropdown. Use any, apartment, house, land, or commercial.
• maxItems - Maximum number of listings to save. Use a small number for quick checks and a larger number for broader discovery.
• datasetId - Optional Apify dataset ID. When provided, each saved listing is also appended to that dataset, which is useful when combining several discovery Actors.
• runId - Optional workflow run ID. When provided, it is copied into each output row and the RUN_SUMMARY key-value record.

To append rows to an existing dataset and tag them with a workflow run:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/trovevault~era-portugal-property-scraper/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

Notes And Limitations

• Use English values for operation and propertyType; the Actor maps them internally to ERA Portugal filters.
• City-level searches are more stable than whole-country searches.
• Some listings may omit full address, exact area, bathrooms, or image galleries.
• The Actor does not bypass logins, paywalls, or private contact flows.
