Facebook Marketplace Property Scraper - Property Listings Data API

🏠 Extract Facebook Marketplace rental and for-sale property listings with prices, locations, images, bedroom counts, bathroom counts, seller details, map data, and full listing details.

Pay per result. Only pay for the Facebook Marketplace property listings successfully saved to your dataset.

🎯 What This Scraper Does

Facebook Marketplace Property Scraper is an Apify actor for extracting property data from Facebook Marketplace. Paste a Facebook Marketplace property rentals or property-for-sale URL, run the actor, and get clean property listing data without opening every listing manually.

It is built for rental and sale property searches, rooms to rent, houses, flats, apartments, and other Marketplace property listings. The scraper scrolls Marketplace search feeds, collects listing URLs, opens listing detail pages, uses enhanced property matching and regex parsing to reduce missed listings, and saves normalized results to the default Apify dataset.

The actor combines feed data, listing-page data, Facebook Marketplace detail responses, visible property chips, and carefully tuned regex extraction. This helps capture listings even when Facebook shows important information in different places, such as the feed tile, image alt text, description, map section, or property details section.

📊 What Facebook Marketplace Property Data Can I Extract?

The actor extracts property-focused listing data that is useful for rental research, deal monitoring, lead generation, and local housing market analysis.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Open Facebook Marketplace in your browser.
2. Go to Property Rentals, Property for Sale, or create a filtered search for your target location.
3. Copy the Marketplace URL with the filters you want.
4. Paste the URL into startUrls on Apify.
5. Keep Apify Proxy enabled for better reliability.
6. Click Start and download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML.

🔗 Supported Facebook Marketplace URLs

Use the exact Marketplace URL that already contains your location, category, query, radius, or filters.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/category/propertyrentals
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/113013485375759/propertyforsale
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/london/propertyrentals
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/category/propertyrentals?exact=false&latitude=53.7567&longitude=-0.3589&radius=13
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/london/search/?query=studio%20flat
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/123456789012345

For feed scraping, build the search on Facebook Marketplace first, verify the listings are the ones you want, then copy that URL into the actor. You can also paste an individual listing URL when you only want to process that one item.

⚙️ Input

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/category/propertyrentals?exact=false&latitude=53.7567&longitude=-0.3589&radius=13"
    }
  ],
  "includeDuplicates": false,
  "rentalsOnly": true,
  "forSaleOnly": false,
  "enhancedListingDetails": true
}

⚙️ Input Options

Field	Type	Default	Description
startUrls	array	Required	One or more Facebook Marketplace property rental, for-sale, category, city, search, or individual listing URLs to scrape.
includeDuplicates	boolean	false	If false, listings already saved in previous runs are skipped. Set to true if you want every run to export all visible listings again.
rentalsOnly	boolean	true	Keeps likely residential rentals and skips sale-only or unrelated Marketplace items.
forSaleOnly	boolean	false	Keeps likely residential for-sale listings and skips rentals or unrelated Marketplace items. When enabled, this overrides rentalsOnly.
enhancedListingDetails	boolean	true	Opens each listing page for richer output such as seller info, descriptions, images, property chips, and map/location data.

Proxy, browser tuning, concurrency, and debug controls are internal production settings. The actor runs headless with a tall, low-scale feed scanner viewport and Apify Residential Proxy enabled by default.

Each listing is saved once to the dataset. Beds, bathrooms, and property type are parsed from the feed tile title, aria-label, image alt text, visible property chips, and listing detail responses when present. The scraper also uses regex extraction for useful hidden-in-text details such as UK postcodes, square footage, phone numbers, rental phrases, sale phrases, room listings, studios, and multilingual property summaries.

With enhancedListingDetails enabled, the actor uses Marketplace detail data plus browser-visible listing sections to collect richer descriptions, seller details, property chips, images, map/location data, and availability text. It only opens listing pages that still need a full description or are missing bed/bath structure on the feed tile, so searches stay efficient while still capturing more complete data. Turn enhancedListingDetails off for the fastest feed-only export.

📊 Output Sample

Each result is saved as one structured property listing in the default dataset.

Some fields may be empty when Facebook does not show the data publicly for a listing, region, account state, or session.

Facebook usually labels map locations as approximate. The actor extracts the map center coordinates and radius (often 2k) from the static map image URL. That is the most precise location Facebook exposes on the listing page — not a full street address.

🔄 How Deduplication Works

By default, the actor keeps a history of listing URLs for your Apify user and skips listings it has already seen. This makes scheduled runs more useful because each run can focus on fresh Marketplace rental listings.

Set includeDuplicates to true if you want every run to return listings even when they were already collected in a previous run.

⏰ Scheduling and Alerts

Facebook Marketplace moves quickly, especially for rooms, cheap flats, and short-term rentals. For monitoring workflows, schedule this actor to run repeatedly and connect the dataset to your alerting tool.

Popular workflows include:

• Send new rental listings to Google Sheets.
• Trigger Slack or Discord alerts for fresh Marketplace property matches.
• Push listings into a CRM for lead follow-up.
• Store results in a database for price tracking.
• Run daily market snapshots for local rental analysis.

🔌 API and Integrations

You can run this Facebook Marketplace Property Scraper manually in Apify Console, schedule it, or call it through the Apify API.

Results can be exported as:

• JSON
• CSV
• Excel
• XML
• HTML table
• API dataset items

You can integrate the actor with Apify webhooks, Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, Slack, Discord, Airbyte, GitHub, Google Drive, CRMs, databases, and custom Python or Node.js workflows.

💡 Tips for Best Results

• Use a Marketplace URL that already shows the location and filters you want.
• Match your proxy region to the Marketplace location where possible.
• Use Apify Proxy for more stable runs.
• If Facebook shows very few listings, try a narrower location, a different radius, or a saved browser session.
• Keep includeDuplicates set to false for scheduled monitoring.
• Use multiple startUrls to monitor several cities, search queries, or radius settings in one run.
• For rare listings, create overlapping searches with different radiuses or keywords.
• Use direct /marketplace/item/... URLs when you want to enrich or test a single listing.
• Keep enhancedListingDetails enabled when you want the best chance of capturing descriptions, property chips, seller data, map data, postcodes, square footage, and availability text.

❓ FAQ

Does Facebook Marketplace have an official API for rental listings?

Facebook Marketplace does not provide a public API for collecting Marketplace rental listings at scale. This actor gives you structured access to publicly visible Marketplace property data through Apify.

Can I scrape Facebook Marketplace property rentals by location?

Yes. Create a Marketplace property rental search with your target city, radius, latitude, longitude, or search query, then paste that URL into startUrls.

Can I export Facebook Marketplace rental listings to CSV or Excel?

Yes. Apify datasets can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, and HTML table formats.

Can I use this as a Facebook Marketplace property API?

Yes. Run the actor through the Apify API, then fetch the dataset items programmatically from your backend, script, or automation workflow.

Does it support scheduled runs?

Yes. Use Apify schedules to run the actor hourly, daily, or at any interval you choose. Keep deduplication enabled to focus on newly discovered property listings.

Why do some listings have missing fields?

Facebook Marketplace does not show every field for every listing, location, account state, or region. If Facebook does not expose a value publicly during the run, the corresponding output field may be empty.

Do I need proxies?

The actor uses Apify Residential Proxy internally for Marketplace access. Proxy settings are not exposed in the public input form.

Is it legal to scrape Facebook Marketplace?

This actor is intended for publicly available Marketplace listing data. Your results may still contain personal data or user-generated content, so you are responsible for using the data lawfully and respecting applicable privacy rules, platform terms, and local regulations.
