Extract real estate property listings from Spitogatos.gr, Greece's largest property portal. Get residential and commercial listings for sale and rent — price, area, rooms, location, agency details, images, and GPS coordinates.

Why This Scraper?

Spitogatos is Greece's #1 real estate marketplace, used by all major agencies and private sellers. However, the site uses enterprise-grade anti-bot protection (Distil/Imperva on AWS CloudFront) that blocks all non-browser HTTP requests — including curl, got-scraping, and even curl_cffi's TLS emulation.

This scraper uses a real Chromium browser via Playwright to pass the anti-bot check, then calls Spitogatos' internal REST API from within the browser context. This hybrid approach delivers fast, structured JSON data without HTML parsing — all while maintaining a natural browser fingerprint.

Performance

Limitations

• Browser required — Playwright Chromium needed for anti-bot bypass

Tips

• Find area IDs — Search on spitogatos.gr and check the URL or use POST /n_api/v1/geographies/autocomplete
• Start small — Begin with 1 area, 1 type, 30 results
• Multiple areas — Add multiple areaIDs to scrape multiple neighborhoods in one run
• Rent + Sale — Add both 'sale' and 'rent' to listingTypes for full coverage
• Monitor prices — Schedule daily/weekly runs to track price changes
