Data Analysis Tips

Calculate Total Move-In Cost

Station Accessibility Score

Lower walkTime values indicate better accessibility. Filter properties with ≤10 minutes walk time for premium listings.

Price per Square Meter

Divide rent by area size to compare value across different properties.

Building Age Premium

Compare rent differences between 築5年 (5 years old) and 新築 (new construction) properties.

Technical Notes

Rate Limiting

The actor implements a 2-second delay between requests to respect SUUMO's servers. This prevents IP blocking and ensures stable long-term usage.

Encoding

All Japanese text is properly handled with UTF-8 encoding to preserve kanji, hiragana, and katakana characters.

Pagination

Automatically detects and follows "次へ" (next page) links until maxResults is reached or no more pages are available.

Error Handling

If a data field is missing, the actor returns "N/A" instead of failing, ensuring consistent output format.

Limitations

• Requires valid area codes (see Common Area Codes section)
• Maximum 500 properties per run (technical limitation)
• Does not scrape property detail pages (only listing pages)
• Images may be lazy-loaded thumbnails
