The infrastructure layer that listing pipelines run on. Bring your portals — we handle the messy parts.
Map-based UIs handled
Redfin and Zillow ship dynamic JS-heavy map interfaces. Headless Chrome captures the full DOM.
How it works →Residential proxies built-in
No separate Web Unlocker fee for the heavily-protected portals. Same key, same credit pool.
Residential pool →International portals
Country-targeted residential exits unlock region-locked listings — UK, DE, FR, ES, beyond.
100+ countries →Map-based portals. JS-rendered. Handled.
Modern real-estate portals lazy-load listings into Mapbox / Google Maps overlays — a plain HTTP fetch returns an empty shell. ScrapingAnt's browser=true runs full headless Chrome, waits for the listing tiles to hydrate, and returns the populated DOM. Apify uses per-actor scrapers per portal; ScrapingAnt is one endpoint that works on Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, Rightmove, Idealista — anywhere with a public listing URL.

Residential proxies. Not a separate product.
Bright Data sells Web Unlocker as a $5/1K add-on plus per-GB residential bandwidth. ScrapingAnt bundles fetch, JS rendering, datacenter and residential proxies into a single credit. Most workloads start on datacenter, then flip proxy_type=residential on the listing pages that get 403'd — same key, same monthly bill.
- 2M+ residential IPs · sticky sessions for portals tracking auth-bound state
- Country / state / city / sessionid targeting via the username parameters
- Failed requests cost 0 credits — Akamai blocks don't inflate the bill
US, EU, beyond — same key, same bill.
Country-targeted residential exits unlock geo-fenced listings: proxy_country=GB for Rightmove, proxy_country=ES for Idealista, proxy_country=DE for Immobilienscout24, proxy_country=FR for SeLoger. Same workflow across 100+ countries — no per-region account, no per-country pricing tier. Proptech apps covering multiple markets can ship a single integration.
- Currency / language / measurement-unit handling left to your downstream pipeline
- Sticky session support for portals tying listing access to login-state
- Single-account billing across all regions — finance teams love this

What is a real estate scraping API?
A real estate scraping API is a managed endpoint that fetches property listings from real-estate portals and returns either raw HTML or structured listing JSON (price, beds, baths, sqft, address). It handles the messy parts — JS rendering for map-based interfaces, residential proxies for anti-bot walls, rate-limit avoidance — so your proptech pipeline doesn't. ScrapingAnt's /v2/general covers the full stack; /v2/extract returns parser-free JSON.
Which real estate portals does it work with?
US portals like Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, Trulia, Apartments.com. International portals like Rightmove (UK), Idealista (Spain), Immobilienscout24 (Germany), SeLoger (France). Niche portals — luxury listings, off-market portals, FSBO sites. Because the API is URL-driven, any HTTP-accessible portal works — no per-portal scraper template to license.
How does it handle anti-bot protection on Zillow and Redfin?
Modern real-estate portals (Zillow, Redfin) ship Akamai Bot Manager, TLS fingerprinting, and behavioral checks. ScrapingAnt's browser=true spins up headless Chrome with realistic fingerprints; proxy_type=residential swaps in 2M+ rotating residential IPs. No extra Web Unlocker fees — the proxy upgrade is just a parameter on the same call.
Can I get JSON or do I need to parse HTML?
Both work. /v2/general returns raw HTML for teams running their own parsers. /v2/extract takes extract_properties=price,beds,baths,sqft,address,year_built and returns clean JSON — useful when you cover many portals and don't want to maintain a parser per site.
Does this work with the MLS?
No. The MLS is RESO-licensed data with formal commercial agreements (SimplyRETS, Bridge Interactive, Estated, etc.). ScrapingAnt scrapes publicly-accessible web pages on portals that surface listing data. If your pipeline needs raw MLS feeds, those are a different vendor; if it needs the displayed-on-Zillow version of that data, ScrapingAnt covers it.
How much would it cost to scan 50,000 listings daily?
With residential proxies and Chrome rendering each fetch is around 25 credits. 50K daily × 30 days ≈ 38M credits/month — that's past Business Pro ($599 / 8M credits) and into Custom territory ($699+ / 10M+ credits). For ~10K listings daily, Business Pro is the right fit; above that, talk to us for a custom plan. Failed fetches cost 0 credits, so anti-bot retries don't inflate the bill.
Can I monitor international real-estate portals from one account?
Yes. Pass proxy_country=GB for Rightmove access, proxy_country=ES for Idealista, proxy_country=DE for Immoscout. Country-targeted residential exits bypass geo-fencing on the portals that block international IPs. One credit pool covers every region.
Is the data legal to scrape?
Scraping publicly-accessible web pages is legally protected in the US under hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn precedent. Specific portals enforce ToS through technical means (bot detection) which scraping APIs bypass; whether that puts you at legal risk depends on your jurisdiction and use case. We don't provide legal advice; you're responsible for compliance. Naming portals like Zillow / Redfin on this page reflects industry norm — every real-estate-scraping vendor names them.
