Zolo Property Discovery Scraper

Discover public Zolo real estate listings from buyer-facing inputs: location, operation, property type, and result limit. The Actor searches Zolo for you, then returns structured listing rows with prices, areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, descriptions, brokers, main image, image gallery, 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 Canadian real estate dataset from Zolo without manually building search URLs or copying listings from the website.

It is useful for:

• Canadian property lead discovery by city
• sale and rental inventory research
• price and area comparison across Zolo listings
• proptech, agency, investor, and market-monitoring workflows
• 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
• sellerName
• mainImage and images
• listedAtText
• scrapedAt
• runId when supplied in the input

Fields are only populated when they are publicly visible in Zolo pages.

Notes And Limitations

• City-level locations are more stable than broad province or country searches.
• This version includes major Canadian cities that expose stable Zolo search pages.
• Detail pages are used to enrich descriptions and image galleries when publicly accessible.
• Prices, availability, and listing details can change after scraping. Use scrapedAt to judge freshness.
• The Actor does not read search URLs from input and does not require an upstream dataset for discovery.
