## Pricing

from $0.96 / 1,000 listings

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

## Hemnet.se Scraper

![Hemnet.se Scraper](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/ClElVyZWvQgPQIuDL/records/hemnet-scraper)

Extract property listings from hemnet.se at scale, in a clean, consistent structure ready for market analysis, valuation models, lead generation and monitoring. No API key required.

***

### Why this scraper?

#### 🎯 Built for Sweden

A dedicated Swedish scraper, not a global tool with a country dropdown. Locations, price formats and currency (SEK) are tuned for hemnet.se.

#### 💶 Structured pricing

Asking price or rent as a clean number in SEK, plus the price exactly as displayed. Price-on-request listings return `null`, never a guess.

#### 🏠 Property characteristics

Bedrooms, rooms, surface and property type in structured fields, ready for filtering and analysis.

#### 📄 Full listing content

Complete listing description and title for every record, with a direct link back to the source.

#### 📍 Precise location

Address fields plus latitude/longitude for mapping and radius analysis.

#### 🖼️ Listing photos

Photo URLs for every listing where the source publishes them.

#### 🔁 Repost & change detection

Every record carries `isRepost` and `changeStatus`, so daily feeds return genuinely new listings instead of reposted duplicates.

***

|---|---|---|---|
| `location` | string | `"Stockholm"` | Swedish location by name — any municipality, city, district, or county (e.g. 'Stockholm', 'Lund', 'Umeå', 'Vasastan'). Resolved automatically against Hemnet. Leave empty to use Location ID or Start URLs. |
| `locationId` | string | (empty) | Exact Hemnet location ID, e.g. '17744'. Overrides the Location name field. Find it in the location_ids\[] parameter of any hemnet.se search URL. |

| `startUrls` | array | (empty) | Paste full hemnet.se search URLs (/bostader or /salda). Filters in the URL are honoured. Overrides the Location and filter fields above. |

### Examples

**Listings in Stockholm:**

```json
{
  "location": "Stockholm",
  "maxItems": 100
}
```

**Cap the price:**

```json
{
  "location": "Stockholm",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "maxPrice": 3450000
}
```

**Scrape a specific search URL:**

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.hemnet.se/bostader?location_ids%5B%5D=17744&item_types%5B%5D=bostadsratt&rooms_min=3"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 200
}
```

**Daily feed of new listings (run on a schedule):**

```json
{
  "location": "Stockholm",
  "daysOld": 1,
  "maxItems": 500
}
```

Schedule this input to run once a day in the Apify Scheduler — each run returns only listings added in the last 24 hours.

***

### 💰 Pricing

**$1.79 per 1,000 results** — you only pay for successfully retrieved listings. Failed retries are never charged.

| Results | Cost |
|---|---|
| 100 | ~$0.18 |
| 1,000 | ~$1.79 |
| 10,000 | ~$17.90 |
| 100,000 | ~$179 |

> Flat-rate alternatives typically charge $29–$49/month regardless of usage.

Subscription tiers lower the rate further, down to $1.29 per 1,000 at the highest tier. Use the **Max results** cap in the input to control your spend exactly.

***

### Performance

| Run size | Typical time |
|---|---|
| 100 results | under 1 minute |
| 1,000 results | 2–4 minutes |
| 10,000 results | 20–35 minutes |

***

### Known limitations

- Some fields (surface, year built, energy label) are only returned when the lister publishes them — expect `null` on a share of records.
- Listing photos and agent details vary per listing; the scraper returns what the source publishes and never invents data.
- Very large result sets are bounded by the source's own paging limits.
- Listings can be withdrawn at any time, so a small share of URLs may expire shortly after scraping.

***

### Technical details

- **Source:** hemnet.se — Sweden property listings
- **Coverage:** everything the public search exposes, filterable via the input parameters above
- **Retry:** automatic retry on network errors with exponential backoff

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "location": "Stockholm",
  "maxItems": 100
}' |
apify call unfenced-group/hemnet-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
