Auction.com Foreclosure Auction Scraper

Pull upcoming foreclosure and bank-owned auction listings from Auction.com into a clean dataset — property address, asset type, estimated market value, starting bid, the full auction schedule, and live auction status.

Built for property flippers and distressed-asset investors who want to spot profitable foreclosures early, before they reach the traditional market.

Why use this actor

• No account, no login, no API key required.
• Every listing fully detailed — address, county, asset type (foreclosure / bank-owned / private seller), estimated market value, beds/baths/sqft, and map coordinates.
• Complete auction schedule — start date, end date, online vs. in-person venue, and a human-readable status (e.g. "Cleared for Auction", "Auction in Progress", "Sale Pending").
• Filter to exactly what you want — by state, city, county, ZIP, keyword, asset type, occupancy, or price.
• Stable JSON output suitable for pipelines, spreadsheets, or a database — download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.
• Automatic retries keep long, multi-state runs flowing without manual babysitting.

How it works

1. You choose what to collect — e.g. { "states": ["TX","FL"] }, or narrow it with a city, ZIP, or price range. Leave it open for a nationwide pull.
2. The actor walks every page of matching auctions and reads each listing's full detail — address, asset type, estimated value, starting bid, and auction timing.
3. Results stream into your dataset in real time, ready to download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

You don't manage any of the fetching, paging, or retrying — just set your search and press Run.

Use cases

• Foreclosure sniping — pull every upcoming auction in your target counties each morning, sort by auction date, and queue the ones that haven't cleared yet.
• Flip-margin screening — compare estimatedValue against startingBid (where published) to rank deals by potential spread before you commit to due diligence.
• Territory monitoring — schedule daily runs filtered to your states/ZIPs and diff against yesterday's dataset to catch newly listed or newly cleared auctions the moment they post.
• Lead lists for outreach — filter to OCCUPIED foreclosures to build pre-auction owner-outreach lists, or VACANT bank-owned assets for wholesale targeting.
• Market analytics — aggregate by county/asset type/status over time to track foreclosure volume, average estimated values, and online-vs-in-person auction mix.
• Pipeline enrichment — join the stable JSON output into your CRM or data warehouse by sourceId to enrich existing property records with live auction status.
