Property Finder Scraper: UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt and Saudi listings

Scrape Property Finder property listings from propertyfinder.ae, .qa, .bh, .eg and .sa. Search by city, area, property type and bedrooms, or paste links you opened on the site.

Use cases

• Market research and pricing: rents and sale prices per community, per bedroom count, per sqft.
• Lead generation for agencies and service companies: which brokers and agents are active in which areas.
• Investment screening: price-drop listings, off-plan vs ready, recent transactions next to the asking price.
• Monitoring: schedule daily runs on an area and compare listing IDs and prices over time.
• Cross-country views: the same search in Dubai, Doha, Manama, Riyadh and Cairo.

FAQ

Do I need a Property Finder account, cookies or an API key? No. The scraper reads the same public pages any visitor sees without logging in. There is nothing to set up.

Which countries work? The UAE (propertyfinder.ae), Qatar (.qa), Bahrain (.bh), Egypt (.eg) and Saudi Arabia (.sa). Pasted links can come from any of them.

How many listings can I get? Each result page has 25 listings and the scraper can read every page of a search (thousands of listings). Set Max listings to 0 for no limit. Max listings counts all your searches together.

How do the price and size filters work? They are applied while the results are read, so a narrow price range in a big city can mean reading many pages to find enough matches. Max pages per search caps that (40 pages = 1,000 listings checked by default). Bedrooms, area, city and property type use the site's own pages, so they cost nothing extra.

My area wasn't found. The status message lists the areas that have listings in that city. You can also open the area on Property Finder and paste the link.

Why is the permit number empty? In the UAE the site shows the permit as an official Dubai Land Department link (Trakheesi) rather than a number. Turn on Include listing details to get that link for every listing.

Do I get owners' phone numbers? Property Finder lists properties through licensed brokers, and the scraper returns the broker's and agent's published business details. If a listing ever comes from a private owner, the scraper leaves out their name, phone and WhatsApp.

Which proxy should I use? Keep the default (Apify datacenter proxy). If the site starts refusing datacenter connections, the run switches to residential proxies by itself when your account has them.

Is it legal to scrape Property Finder? This Actor only collects publicly available data: property listings that anyone can view on Property Finder without an account. Collecting publicly available data is generally legal, but you're responsible for how you use it. Results can include agents' names and brokers' business contact details, and that counts as personal data. You must follow privacy laws such as GDPR, PIPEDA and CCPA, as well as Property Finder's terms. If you're unsure, check with a lawyer. More on this: Is web scraping legal?

Does it access any private data? No. Everything comes from pages Property Finder shows to any visitor without logging in. It never uses a login, never touches private accounts, and never reaches password-protected areas.
