SUUMO Japan Rentals Scraper — apartments, rent & full details

Extract rental listings from SUUMO, Japan's largest real-estate portal (70,000+ rentals in Tokyo alone). Get rent, deposit, key money, layout, size, address, station access and full property details as clean JSON — no login, no browser, no proxies to configure.

What you get

Run it with the default input and you'll receive rooms like this in seconds:

{
  "buildingName": "ザ・パークハウス代々木大山レジデンス",
  "category": "賃貸マンション",
  "address": "東京都渋谷区大山町",
  "nearestStation": "小田急線/代々木上原駅 歩7分",
  "access": ["小田急線/代々木上原駅 歩7分", "京王井の頭線/池ノ上駅 歩12分"],
  "buildingAge": "築3年",
  "floor": "5階",
  "rentYen": 590000,
  "adminFeeYen": 20000,
  "depositYen": 590000,
  "gratuityYen": 590000,
  "layout": "2LDK",
  "areaSqm": 87.96,
  "detailUrl": "https://suumo.jp/chintai/jnc_000108449314/"
}

Every price is parsed into a numeric yen value (rentYen, depositYen, gratuityYen, adminFeeYen) so you can sort and filter directly — no wrestling with 万円 strings. Each room is one row, carrying its building's name, address and station access.

Enable full property details to also get structure, build date, parking, move-in date, contract period, guarantee company, extra fees, remarks and photo URLs.

Who uses this

• Real-estate & proptech — build rent indexes, price-per-m² analysis, or a rental search product for the Japanese market
• Investors & agencies — monitor new listings, deposit/key-money norms by ward, yield research for foreign buyers entering Japan
• Relocation & concierge services — feed fresh listings to clients moving to Tokyo/Osaka
• Researchers — housing-cost and urban studies with real, current data

How to use

1. Open suumo.jp/chintai and apply your filters — area, rent range, layout, walk-to-station, etc.
2. Copy the results-page URL and paste it into SUUMO search URLs (you can add several).
3. Set Max rooms (default 100).
4. Optionally enable full property details.
5. Run, then download from the Dataset tab as JSON / CSV / Excel, or fetch via API.

Leave the URL empty and it runs a working default (Tokyo rentals) so you can try it in one click.

Pricing model

You pay per result — a small fee for each room returned. A 500-room export costs less than a coffee. No subscription to this Actor beyond your Apify plan.

FAQ

How do I search a specific area or budget? SUUMO encodes every filter in the URL. Just filter on the SUUMO site itself, then paste the resulting URL — whatever you searched for is what you get.

What does one row represent? One rentable room/unit. A single building often lists several rooms; each becomes its own row with the shared building info attached.

How fresh is the data? Live. Every run queries SUUMO in real time.

Does it handle multiple pages? Yes — it follows SUUMO's "次へ" (next) pagination automatically until it reaches your Max rooms limit.

Is this legal? The Actor collects only publicly visible listing data, the same information any visitor sees. It does not log in or access private data. You are responsible for complying with SUUMO's terms and applicable laws when using the data.

Something broke? SUUMO occasionally changes its markup. Open an issue on this Actor's page and it will typically be fixed within 24 hours.
